Thank you for the hybridizer and bit of history on this iris. It is just
what
I was hoping for.

La Neige was hybridized by Eugene Verdier and introduced in 1912 by the firm
of Vilmorin-Andrieux which had acquired Verdier's seedlings after his death
in 1902.
It most definitely was not first grown in Indiana, and yes it is an historic
iris..
