From AIS Bulletin #209 April 1973 Introducing FASHION TREND. Sdlg. 12869C. A lovely crisp clean, heavily substanced medium blue self, with a near white beard. Many blues are serene and calm, but this flower displays a hint of frivolity. It has fluted domed standards and broad heavily ruffled horizontal falls. The florets are airly poised on heavy stalks. It is a splendid increaser and has good strong foliage. A lilting iris with flair and personality. Late midseason. 35 inches. $25.00. Echo Hill Garden.
