From Cornell 112:Color effect a light lavender, prune purple veined bicolor. S. light lavender-violet reticulated violet. F. velvety prune purple, closely and distinctly veined the same on the glistening lavender outer haft, reticulated brown. Beard fine, dense, bluish, with orange-yellow tips. This iris is of moderate growth and has stiff, slender foliage. The stalk is not tall, but is well and widely branched. The conical carriage of the tinted standards and the dark spreading falls give interesting color contrasts in late season. The standards may occasionally bear flecks. Rating 78.
