Much to our collective embarrassment (Cooley's and ours), the cover inset
picture was mis-read from the slide and thus mis-named.  Paul fortunately is
very understanding!

That Beautiful iris is PIONEER WOMAN (Paul Black 2002)

PIONEER WOMAN - TB, 36" (91cm), Midseason.  Pioneer Women had to be tough and
robust and so is this Pioneer Woman.  Standards appear as sun bonnet yellow. 
They are in fact white with a heavy, overall veining of yellow with yellow
margins.  Styles are bright yellow.  Broad, flouncy, stark white falls have a
wide yellow band and veined haft.  Beards are sunshine yellow.  Huge blooms
are supported by strong, well branched stalks.  Makes big, husky plants. 
Sdlg.  B2A  Amour X Ginger Swirl.
