From AIS Bulletin #241 April 1981 Introducing CONSENSUS-Sdlg. 1477A: Mystical Aura x (Sea of Stars x Meghan). A crisp and sparkling light blue-violet flower. The generously fluted standards are tightly closed. The wide, ruffled and flaring falls are deeply and precisely corrugated. They are decorated with a yellow tinge at the haft and a distinctive amber rim on the edge. The beard is light yellow tipped blue. Good growing habits and plenty of substance. Truly a graceful iris of intriguing charm. Mid to late season, 34". HC 1980. $25.00. Echo Hill Garden.
