Carol, I, too wish I had more information on this iris. The last
orders Earl Hall sent out were in 1996, I believe. Anyway, he
tucked that iris in my order to guest for him. I have no record of the
parentage, but what he sent me as 88-115 is a very nice flared,
blue-violet IB.
It is my understanding that Earl has closed his garden and is
now residing in a nursing home. This information was posted here
last fall, I think. Dennis Kramb, who lives in the Cincinnati area
close to the Hall's, might be of some help in contacting the family
and getting some information. I would be reluctant to sell his
seedling without permission from Earl or the family.

Enid Lake, MS 7/8 (where WRIGHT FLYER has two open
blooms and CANTINA is stalking....this is amazing since we just
went through six weeks without rain but have more than caught up
in the last week. One area garden got 9 inches of rain since last
Wednesday when this monsoon started).
