References:

From AIS Bulletin #285 April 1992 Introducing SUNCATCHER. Suncatcher may be the most beautiful yellow Iris introduced to date. Who says so? I do, the hybridizer and, of course, I am entirely unbiased. Suncatcher is being introduced before its time, but when one becomes 80 years old, who can wait to get sufficient stock so that it can be available for everyone?. See special offer on page 67.
