From Tell’s Iris Garden catalog, 1955: UTAH SKY (Muhlestein). E.-M. (Sky Song x Gracious Lady.) Cornflower blue that is one of the bluest blues I have seen. The very wide falls have a bit of ruffling at the hafts that give it distinction. Won the Blue class at the Utah Iris Society 1953 show. H.C. '54. No. 51-96. $15.00 |
