From AIS Bulletin #265 April 1987 Introducing ORANGE SLICES (Niswonger '87) Sdlg. 32-82: Far Corners X Copper Classic. TB, 33" (84 cm), M. Fertile both ways but with some difficulty. As a child, one of my favorite candies was the "orange slices". This iris takes me back to those days of enjoyment with almost a Pavlov's reflex. It has a yummy pinkish orange color with an orange crest and beard. Although I haven't grown many seedlings from it, I feel it has great hybridizing possibilities. $30.00. Cape Iris.
