Pink Sleigh, Northbrook, Fleeta, May Hall, etc.) X 46-80: (Singing Skies X Lilac Thrill). TB, 33", Mid. A pink with a blue beard that has proven to be a good breeder. It sets seeds easily and its pollen is fertile too. Other breeders may be working this line and these genes should be included. Besides that, it's a nice easy growing iris that everyone should enjoy. $30.00. Cape Iris. |
