MOORCROFT Large 19cm x 19cm FRAMED PLAQUE (Shape No PLQ 7) "SUGAR CANDY" (Trial Piece , Dated 19.3.24) By Designer Nicola Slaney R.R.P. £270.00
(A Pacific Coast Iris (PCI) bred by Marjorie Brummitt and named after her dog 'Candy'. Jennifer Hewitt who founded the West and Midlands Iris Group in 1974, obtained her first irises from Marjorie and the friendship continued for many years. Moorcroft are glad as this Sugar Candy plaque is as elegant as it is sweet and holds diagonally mirrored blooms which are cooled by basal fans woven among the three standards, and three large, spreading falls. Pacific Coast group irises lack the “beard” of coloured hairs at the base of each fall that other iris groups have but hold unique colourways like ‘Sugar Candy’ with her short, fawn and maroon flowers.)
