Gay Parasol Historic Tall Bearded Iris represents my older niece in our Family Heritage Iris Bed. It’s grown well. Made a great showing this spring in a big clump that now needs thinning.
Schreiner’s 1984 catalog comments: “A vivacious sportive gaily colored iris. This lacy edged amoena with a glistening crown of silver white standards and the handsome foil of rich, sumptuous, dashing rose-purple falls is trim and neat with an individual buoyant air. Not a large flower, yet very personable and praiseworthy.”
(Schreiner, R. 1973). Seedling# D 517-1. Davis ‘Melodrama’ seedling X ‘Margarita’.
