Full Description

TB 30″ M Y4L

From Stevens Bros. catalog for 1952-53: “A lovely iris with the silken luminous texture of crepe de chine. Altogether unlike any other variety, either in its texture or its shade of cream. Despite the fact that it has good substance there is a fascinating delicacy of air about the lustrous blooms.”

(sdlg X Tiffany).
