INTERESTING INFO:
From the 1967 Schreiner's Iris Lover's Catalog: I regret that we do not have a large picture of this excellent new yellow of ideal color and perfect form, but to show as many varieties in color as possible some sacrifice in picture size sometimes has to be made. Sun Miracle is not a golden yellow but in the HRS scale a true canary yellow. In the garden picture we never get enough of these. Their effect is like magic in brightening up the entire iris colorama. Yellow is indeed the most vivid color: witness the popularity of marigolds. Don't pass up this potent color. It will do things for you!
