Walter,
I have about 30 seedlings to bloom next spring from Evergreen Hideaway X
Green And Gifted.
Maureen Mark,
I have asked visitors to the garden to tell me what color Evergreen
Hideaway is. Invariably they all say chartruese. This iris is the
closest to green that I have ever seen. In my climate it grows
smallish. Foilage and stalks. It is however vigorous and floriforous.
Green And Gifted is somewhat of a greenish-champagne cream blend. In
cooler weather some blue appears in the falls. G&G has a striking dark
brown beard.
