Humoresque Keppel, R. 1961 I. 1962 TB 35" M From Melrose Gardens catalog for 1967: "Imagine growing iris that never has two stems with the same color flowers! That's Humoresque. The flowers on a single stem will be much alike but not at all similar to the flowers on the stem next to it. The color varies from white with a few dashes of violet to a medium violet with splashes of white and everything in between! - and mostly between. Phenomenally different. An inheritable characteristc, too, the pattern passes on to the seedlings." (Snow Flurry X (Mrs. J. L. Gibson x Stratosphere))
