Iris hollandica Eye of the Tiger. Uniquely colored, this exotic "Beauty" strain has violet-blue standards and sultry, mahogany-bronze falls with yellow blotches. In the 1940s, the De Graaf Brothers and S.A. van Konijnenburg hybridized the award-winning "Beauty" strain of Iris hollandica. These magnificent varieties are characterized by glorious ephemeral colors, larger flowers and often the growth of a second flowering stem.
