1989 introduction from Monty Byers; 36 inches; mid to late season bloom; ruffled violet & white Emma Cook; beards are white tipped tangerine with fuzzy white horns. Honorable Mention: 1991; Award of Merit: 1994; John C Wister Medal: 1998; Dykes Memorial Medal: 1998. I think every iris garden should have this iris as one of the stars in the garden. Prolific bloomer, great growth.
