Hybridizer's Comment: One of the first Tall Bearded Iris to greet you in early Spring. It is basically rich lilac with the standards of the one colour and falls have an all over veined or spray pattern of deep purple running right down to the base of the falls. There is an area of white each side of the beard setting the flower off and showing up the contrasting veining. Beards are white, tipped tangerine. Nicely ruffled with good branching and some show stems once established.
