From AIS Bulletin #205 April 1972 Introducing Lucy BLOCHER (Rippling Waters X B232. $25.00. This iris has many fine qualities, and is different from any iris I have seen. It is a vigorous grower, produces beautiful "s" curved stems, and opens three blooms at a time, nicely placed on the stalk. The flowers are medium lavender color, very ruffled, with excellent substance which can take heavy rains and hot sun. The pollen parent comes from the same line of breeding which produced Marquesan Skies and Sea of Stars. I have named this iris for my mother. 30" tall, mid-season, eight to ten buds per stem. Blocher.
