References:

From AIS Bulletin #236 January 1980 Introducing QUEEN IN CALICO ('80) M, 87 em, #65-40, Plicata. $25.00. A bright, cheerful fancy in violet and light orange, enhanced further by its ruffled, laced, fluted and serrated edges. An appropriate combination for a calico dress fit for a queen. The rich orange beard adds much to this unusual color combination. It is a vigerous grower and much admired in the garden for this and its unusual color and pattern. Gibson Iris Garden.
