Full Description

From Cooley’s Iris Catalog 1952  “Glowing ruby self, heavily overlaid with bright copper which gives a metallic sheen. A genuine self with no haft markings even the beard is a deep copper red. Wide and full form but the flowers are of medium size. Substance is firm and the blooming season very long  A very rare color gem.”

From Long’s Gardens Catalog 1957: “M 35” Glowing ruby red self, heavily overlaid with bright copper which gives it a metallic sheen. Wide full form and exceptional color.
Amaranth x Three Oaks.

From Schreiners Iris Lovers Catalog 1955  “Aglow with fire, this vibrantly colored iris without haft markings or any other coloring is a fiery ruby self with a bright copper glint.”
