From Keith Keppel Iris catalog, 2014: WISHES GRANTED M 37 " (Silk Road X Roaring Twenties). So many pretty flowers came from this cross, but we kept wishing for one with the tangerine factor. Finally our wishes were granted! Beige pink standards, flaring rich lobelia blue-violet falls which pale with age at the margins and inner haft. Beards a mixture of violet blue, lavender white and predominantly tan orange. Flared falls waved and ruffled, stalks well-branched. We've been pleased by its seedlings so far. #06-77X. $50.00.
