From Schreiner’s Iris Lover’s catalog for 1964: “From two exceptionally fine new iris, both famous in their own right, Amethyst Flame and Pretty Carol, comes this massive rich rose, larger than Pretty Carol similar in color. Delightful rich-toned color and copious form make this a real advance in the popular and important rose class. Considerably larger than Pretty Carol. A wonderful garden iris which we strongly recommend.”
From Neubert’s Flower Garden catalog for 1968: “A rich orchid-rose of large size and well proportioned flowers. A wonderful garden iris.”
(Amethyst Flame X Pretty Carol).
