Full Description

IMB (arilbred) E R2D rev

From Cooley’s Gardens catalog for 1945: “Bright reddish violet hybrid, quite similar to Wm. Mohr in appearance, but a much larger flower with a rosy effect.”

From Schreiner’s Iris Lover’s Catalog for 1947: “Extremely large globular blooms of bright reddish violet with a deeper toned signal patch at the end of the beard. One of the parents of the famous Lady Mohr and prized by hybridizers as a parent.
