Those of you breeding for blue bearded whites that have been planning to start adding rebloom to your lines can now have your cake and eat it too--all with this iris! And not sacrifice an iota of quality in form! Excellent ruffled flowers with domed standards and short, round flaring falls! Good crisp substance too! On top of everything else it is fragrant always here-wonderfully sweet! Could have better stalks but they're not bad. Very vigorous and a good rebloomer here usually starting in October. It and SILVER SCREEN are just two of over 200 sibs that have rebloomed here. $35.00
