Awaiting original catalog description
SHOT SILK (Murrell) is a small flower of medium height, standards pink, falls overlaid grey. This is most floriferous and effective. We haven't many native blends, so perhaps I have put this up too high. It is not new, but is well worth its place. You may very likely have several similar in shade. [Cave, N. Leslie (1943). Comments from England. American Iris Society Bulletin, 88(January 1943), 52.]
