From Keith Keppel Iris catalog, 1984: TOMORROW'S CHILD (Blyth '84) ML 36" (Lisa Ann X Child of Fortune). An Austra1ian creating much comment here in America the past two years. Pastel orchid-toned pink standards; rich, velvety-fin ished red purple falls with a 1/4" border to match the standards. Beards are tangerine red. All this, plus ruffles and lace! So far, for us it has been a rather heavy bloomer, and stock is very 1imited. #M56-5 35.00. |
