Description
A Perennial Favourite for DecadesThis collection includes one each of the following varieties:
- Ultimate: Medium yellow standards contrast beautifully with mahogany falls, which sport a few golden rays on the haft. This multiple award winner exudes a light, spicy fragrance. Grows 13" tall.
- Forever Blue: Here's an award-winning rebloomer whose pretty, pale blue standards and falls are washed with violet. Dark blue beards add nice contrast. Flowers early in spring and again in fall. Grows 12" tall.
- Cat's Eye: Compact clumps of rich rose-red blooms bear deep red centres on the falls. This multiple award winner will add exotic colour to pots, border fronts or sunny rockeries. Grows 15" tall.
- Coconino: Another of our amazing multiple-award winners. Cream-coloured standards rest atop yellow-orange, cream-tipped beards and blackened-mulberry falls with a light cream rim. A swath of these in bloom is a sight to behold! Height: 13" tall.
- Going in Circles: Award-winning dwarf iris has standards of mid to light lilac with textured, grey-blue veins. Each garnet petal of the falls is outlined with a ¾" band of mid to light lilac. Beards are marigold, medium yellow and white. Grows 13" tall.
- Open Your Eyes: Winner of the 2016 Cook-Douglas Medal, this elegant dwarf has sweetly fragrant flowers, bright white standards, white beards and white falls with large, inky-blue spots. Excellent in border fronts and rock gardens. Grows 15" tall.
