From AIS Bulletin #241 April 1981 Introducing FOREVER APRIL-TB, M, 100 cm, Blend #153-4A. $25.00. This vigorous, bright, beautiful blend has always been the point of attraction in the garden. The ruffled, fluted and lightly laced petals of this (6-1/2x6") perfectly shaped flower have a color combination difficult to describe. In it we see a caramel brown and violet combination with a burst of gold radiating out from orange beards. Well branched, 8 buds. Gibson Iris Garden.
