From AIS Bulletin #197 April 1970 Introducing KINGSTON HARBOR - Sdlg. 828-1 (involving Limelight, Gold Ruffles, Frost and Flame, Pink Enchantment and Fanfare Orchid). Cobalt blue (Wilson 4413), turkey-red beard. Here, at last, is a truly blue iris with a red beard. Near the color of Galilee, yet a different blue. A beautiful new color. Not a huge iris, but if color is "your thing" and blue is your color, Kingston Harbor is for you. Nicely formed flowers, seven buds. 34". $25.00. Bennett Jones.
