Awaiting original catalog description.
I've always contended that plicatas with their fancy patterns have attracted more new irisarians than any other color group, and the popularity of HEY LOOKY solidified that opinion. This wild, kooky plic was never the same in any two gardens, nor even on the same stalk. It demanded attention with its white ground color speckled blue or vice-versa. I was so entranced with its oddity I forgot to check for other qualities. [Mullin, Ron (1971). Irises I Like, American Iris Society Bulletin 204(January 1972), 13.]
