My set of "fans" was purchased through the AIS store front some 6 to 8 years
ago and does not include color names, only numbers. For instance, several
new seedlings look like they will range somewhere around 83A to 83D (various
shades of violet.) The box, containing 4 "fans", has just been removed from
the back of the book shelf, dusted off, and placed on a prominent spot on my
desk! Hurray! It's description time again! Let the seedlings "pop!" Now,
where DID I put that yardstick?
Betty from Bowling Green KY. Right in the center of iris heaven. (The
seedlings are blooming!)
