I have no idea of the colours in the catalog..... however, I have dutch
irises in Yellow, orange, everything from pristine white through to dark
blue (and various combinations throughout), Deep purple, mauve, pink (its
actually a pinky mauve... but definitely would fall into the pinks) bicolor
yellow and white (Apollo and Angel Wings) and bronze. There really is a
wide range of colours.
