Full Description

TB 36″ EE B1M

From the Bonnewitz Irises catalog for 1926: “This is a very pleasing Pallida with a slight suggestion of pink in its coloring. It may not be quite as large as Pallida Dalmatica, but it is a worthwhile Iris. Splendid for mass planting.”

From Treholme Gardens catalog for 1928: “S. soft blue; F. slightly deeper with very light buff markings. More pink in color than Miranda. A fine tall Pallida for massing.”
