Full Description

From Schreiner’s Iris Lovers catalog 1952 “ML 36”. A translucent delicate seachell or coral-pink. Its crowning glory, a deep tangerine-orange beard is bloldly accented against this lovely color. Its wax-like substance holds the delicate coloring very well and flowers take the hottest sun without fading. We regret that the colored illustration could not quite capture the more salmon-coral tint which would be an even finer reproduction. Very popular HM 1945.
