Full Description

From Cooleys Gardens Catalog 1976

ML 36″

Deep Rose pink or rose red, however you may choose to describe the color. The very full heavy beard is brilliant, almost pure red. It is as close to perfection as one could wish for and the color is alive and pleasing.

HM, 59; AM 63.

Provenance: Image 1, picture in the garden of Laetitia munro, Newfoundland NJ, 2009; iris from Wanda Rezac 2007.
