Description

A new color in Siberian Iris: buff and cream, a little gold, a little pink underlay, and a gold rim. One might call it golden brown, but that would not do justice to the unusual flowers which always garner attention. Flowers are held well above the foliage, and it forms a big, sturdy clump. Each stalk carries 5 to 7 flowers.
