Hybridizer's Comment : Here is a huge iris with potential show stems galore. Standards are lavender mauve and falls are the same lavender mauve with a deeper line running down each fall and a halo of the same deeper mauve around the beards and a white spray pattern shows through this halo. Beards are vivid tangerine over white. Wide, ruffled and fluted blooms and a light perfume. Fertility is untested.
