References:

From Longfield Iris Farms catalog, 1929: Hydromel (Williamson No. 10, 1928). (Pedigree lost). Tall Bearded. Height 30 inches, growth and habit of the Dominion type, but better branched. Flowers of medium size, bicolored (suggesting an unusually brilliant Dr. Bernice) Yellow Ochre and Victoria Lake. A rich colored and distinct Variegata of good form, in which the falls, under the microscope, are more velvety in texture than Dominion. This variety was described in 1924 by Mr. Sturtevant, who rated it at 80 plus. We have had it in our garden for fifteen years or more. $1.50.
