Full Description

TB 40″ EM

From Fleur de Lis Iris Catalog 1966: “A full sister to last years Trudy, this is another brown and white amoena. A bit larger than its sister, this has considerably wider standards and falls plus a heavier touch of fluting or ruffling at the hafts. While both have near identical standards of white with faint gilt touches, this has falls of much more somber coloring, somewhere between the shades of burnt umber and burnt sienna without the somewhat orangey chestnut undertones found in the falls of TRUDY.”
