Full Description

TB 36″ ML

From Schreiner’s Iris Lover’s catalog for 1960: “The color of Bronze Bell is startlingly rich, reddish copper, highly polished. A heavy metallic luster plays over its surface with a golden iridescence. A massive flower of splendid substance with superb form and exuberant ruffling. Bronze Bell is extra generous in the number of flowers borne on its stout stems. One of the fine copper iris from our Inca Chief crosses.”
