Full Description

TB 38″ ML

From Schreiner’s Iris Lover’s catalog for 1974: “A terrific new black iris with exceptional perfection of bloom and finish. Its branched stem is exceptionally fine for a deep colored iris and the perfection of finish of the flower is remindful of chiseled black obsidian. Large in size it is one of the first with ruffled petals and coupled with this a lilting flare. Truly topnotch.” (Prince Indigo X Nightside), HM 1971, AM 1973.
