I grew 'Headlines' many years ago, and on consulting my photo file found
that the picture Anner refers to in the Rix book is woefully off.
'Headlines" did have falls as black as any "black" iris of its time, and
did give the impression in the garden of a black and white iris. Good
grower too (this in northern Pennsylvania).
