Full Description

TB 35″ EM

From Schreiner’s Iris Lover’s catalog for 1973: “No one term properly or adequately describes this iris as it is a subtle blending of rich and intense deep chocolate and red brown with a hint of sultry, still deeper chocolate. Blooms are flaring; color is sunfast, and substance heavy. A rich beauty.”
