Cream yellow self with gold stitching around the beard. A most desirable standard dwarf iris. 12". HC 1971. $5.00. Bennett Jones. |
SPRING BELLS (Jones '72)-This cream-yellow sib to Cotton Blossom showed itself to be a delightful addition to the standard dwarfs. It carries a somewhat larger flower than Cotton Blossom but is identical in form to that variety.
