I thought a definition of BiColor might help:

Standards light colored; falls a different or darker color. Today we want the falls to be Purple, Wine, Navy Blue or Black -- all dark colors.

Jazz Festival (to me, this color is too dark to be classified as a pastel, so I am posting it, here).

Strut. I would have guessed bitone on this one, but the DB has it classified as a bicolor.

It's interesting, isn't it Deb? Some of the descriptions are perplexing -- but I'm going with them. The designations were selected by people who know more about Irises than I do!!

Me too. I'm going through my entire database and identifying each Iris according to their correct classification. It's an education. That's a side bonus in addition to the entertainment factor. Smiling

It was 12 below this morning! up to 10 below now, I have to run the neighbor kids to school, I do that on cold days as they have a new baby. It's a late start day today, So I'll get started on the bi-colors until I have to go, then finish later.
