Lacy domed standards are Reed Yellow (M&P). Oyster white falls heavily laced Chrome Yellow (M&P). Clean two-inch wide haft enhanced by orange-yellow beard. All these attributes, plus heavy substance and good branching make this a MUST for connoisseurs of fine iris. Proven parent for "lacy" seedlings. Midseason-36". Scarce this year. Net $20.00.
