Absoutely not! As it grows for me it looks somewhat like the picture on
the AIS Web page. I have never seen it with flounces or spoons, only
horns. As a matter of fact when the Bulletin came I did not know what
the iris was on the cover and I have been growing it for 6 years.
BYW, I haven't heard anyone mention the little green frog sitting in the
middle of CORONATION ANTHEM on page 55 of the Bulletin. I wonder if
this was planned?
