Full Description

TB 30″ ML

From Schreiner’s Iris Lover’s catalog for 1981: “We should not second guess the originator when he names his creation. Yet – with this remarkable Iris we do see visions of “Ice Ballet” or “Swan Lake”. Ruffled Ballet is an Iris of classical perfection. Its crystal blue-white standards are heavily ruffled and nicely compliment the flaring falls of medium to light blue with lemon beards. Acclaim and high raves from everywhere follow this fine Iris from the “Show Me” state.”
