looking for 'Arizona Holiday'

Colorado Springs, CO(Zone 5b)

Good evening ladies. I have been looking for an Iris that I got frommy Auntie several years ago, but it died... it's a TB called Arizona Holiday. I have searched all over and have not found it... Any help would be appreciated. It may be another local TB that was never formally introduced. It that's the case, then I may have to schmooze my Auntie into giving or trading for another one.
Here i a picture.. it's the apricot colored one. It had a lovely lavender sheen in the middle of the falls... wish I had a better picture. This one is from 7 years ago.....

Arizona Holiday was introduced by Durrance in 1988. Have not seen so far where it is available. Still looking.

Hello there, naomimade I found the information on AIS iris register website. It is searchable, cost is $10.00 a year. Has information on most all irises registered. Limited on ones from before 1940's I use it all the time, librarian and historian for our club, so do a lot of confirming info.

might I add - if Long's garden introduced it for Durrance, then they are are most logical place to start looking for it.
