References:

From AIS Bulletin #228 Winter 1978 Introducing SOUTHLAND GRAPE-TB, 34", L. (71-6B). A glowing orange-brown beard (RHS 25A) on this dark violet self (83A) calls for your attention as you enter the garden. The beard remains brilliant as the falls fade slightly to RHS 86B around it. There are 7-9 buds on 3-4 branches. Fertile both ways. Received much praise at the Memphis Convention. (Royal Heritage X Black Swan). $25.00. Burch Iris Gardens.
