Full Description

From Schreiner’s Iris Lover’s catalog for 1960: “Brass Accents is the brownest of the yellow blends we have introduced from our Inca Chief seedlings. For a noble background iris, depend on rugged Brass Accents whose height and regal carriage make it stand out in any company. It is an extraordinarily smooth, velvety flower, virtually a self except for a burnished haft. Branching is ideal and size pre-eminent. You’ll love the golden coffee-brown color, the flaring form, the casual ruffling. Growth and propagation are very superior. An all around great iris!”

From Schreiners Iris Lovers Catalog 1967 “A noble, rugged iris whose stem and regal carriage stand out in any company. It is an extraordinarily smooth velvety flower. You’ll love the golden coffee-brown color, the flaring form, the casua ruffling. Branching is ideal and size pre-eminent. A magnificent iris. HM ’59 AM ’61  2.50.”
