PRECIOUS MEMORIES (Hunt-McAllister, 1987) OGB+ Wisteria violet standards; greyed yellow falls, blushed rose-pink. Velvety signal of deep burgundy. Presumably triploid, from Teucros X Fourteen for Rachel. It has produced a few seedlings for me, but none of them have survived to bloom size. This seedling was special to me, personally, because it was the last one that Gene sent to me as a guest before his death. It's also a special iris, with a textured signal rarely found in arilbreds. With Gene's tradition of using Biblical names for his iris, the title of the old gospel tune seemed like a perfect "fit". |
