References:
From Tempo Two catalog, 1989: GREEN AND GIFTED (Paul Blyth 89) E-M 36" Sdlg 7-14-1. So many people wanted to know about this as a seedling. A written description does not give the effect that it gives once it is seen. Standards are greeny cream; falls are greeny cream with a light pastel overlay fading out after the first day to a standard colour. Beards are big and brown to old gold with green veination around beards. It gives that green effect that is often asked for in Iris but seldom seen. Excellent branching and bud count. (Hello Hobo X Beau Zam Sib.) $25.00. |
