Gayla,
Here are the descriptions that I could find for you. The others are
more recent than my 1989 Checklist. There is a Zebra listed in the 1939
Checklist, but I am not sure it is the same flower.
> NEW DAWNING
> NIGHT OWL TB 38" Standards rich dark violet-blue-black. Falls same
with velvety texture. Same color for beards. Schreiner's, 1970.
> MARRIAGE VOWS TB 38" Standards light blue-pink. Falls bluish white,
lightly picoteed pink band. Tagerine Beard. Ghio, 1987.
> ROSE CAPRICE TB 38" Standards silky rose-lavender. Falls same with
haft appearing to intensify same prime color. Yellow beard. Schreiner's,
1972.
> CRACKLIN BURGUNDY TB 35" Lighlty ruffled smooth silky deep burgundy
red. Same color for Beard. Schreiner's, 1981.
> MALEGUENA
> BANANA FRAPPE
> BLUE LUSTER TB 38" Standards ruffled blue. Falls violet-blue. Blue
beard. O. Brown, 1973.
> ZEBRA
> WELL ENDOWED TB 40" Bright gold self with small white area below gold
beard. Ghio., 1979.
> IMMORTALITY TB 30" Ruffled pure white. White beard. Fragrant.
Reblooms. (I grow this Iris. It has a blue tint to it in cooler weather.)
Zurbrigg, 1982.
