From AIS Bulletin #244 January 1982 Introducing LOOKOUT- TB, M, 86 em, 54-7A $25.00. A most unusual and attractive flower of white, delicately flushed violet. The ruffled petals have an outstanding 3/4" lace edge of gold, and the hafts are also gold. A brilliant orange-red (30C) beard could well serve as a lookout signal. The medium height bloomstalk has good branching, with 6 to 8 buds producing 6"x6" blooms. Much admired in our garden the past two seasons. It could be an interesting parent because of its orange-colored parents and grandparents including CHRISTMAS TIME and DENVER MINT. Gibson Iris Garden. |
