TB 38″ EM

From Schreiner’s Iris Lover’s catalog for 1973: “A welcome and worthy addition to the blue class with color even bluer than its parent, Galilee. This light, French blue is invariably singled out as ‘that very blue’ iris. Has a light texture veining from its other parent Symphony. Pale lemon yellow beard. Exceptional for its fine form. Large and nicely ruffled.”

(GalileexSymphony), HM 1967, JC 1967 & 1968, NTG Award 1968, AM 1969, Dykes Medal 1972.
