Evening, Dennis.

Here's what I can tell you. 

TRAIL'S END is a perfectly legitimate name of a TB iris from 1934 for which, 
according to the best info I have here, HIPS does not have a record of 
survival. 

TRAILS WEST is a TB Schreiner iris from 1986, described as an "autumn brown 
blend." Not old enough to be endangered yet. 

I don't have any registrations beyond the 1989 Check List but I doubt AIS 
released the name TRAIL'S END and someone else reused it. When that has 
happened in the past it has only proven that some things are nowhere as 
extinct as they were thought to be.

So, I'm guessing you probably got the name muddled when you made your labels.

Happy Trails to you.....and so forth ...
