Full Description

TB 32″ EM

From Schreiner’s Iris Lover’s catalog for 1981: “A most striking ‘variegata-plicata’ that is delightfully different! Its brilliant yellow standards are underscored by flaring, ruffled falls of white with a plicata wash of cyclamen purple to java brown speckles. Nicely ruffled. A much sought after exciting new variety.”
