  • Very vigorous grower for me... first year they were 30" tall... second year I had 3 stalks per plant and they were 37" tall. They bloomed right with my other Middle Late irises. This was a bonus from Schreiner and a very nice addition to my garden.
  • This Iris was first described in March, 2018. Here is the original description link: https://web.archive.org/web/20... Scroll down to page 22.

    This is a unique Reticulata type Iris in that it reproduces via seeds, and via bulbs forming at the end of Stolons. Very rarely it will produce daughter bulbs without stolons. (personal communication with Alan McMurtrie)
  • This is such a prolific grower in zone 6A for me! This gorgeous iris was hybridized just 40 minutes away in Elwood, Utah. It's one of my Brad Kasparek favorites
  • This is a known plicata carrier.
  • If you either grow this hybrid, or know of someone who grows it, then take the time to inspect the golden rim of the standards close up. What's fascinating is how this region is actually comprised of small specks of both yellow and purple pigmentation, which when seen from a distance gives the remarkable illusion of a solid golden edge. Isn't Mother Nature wonderfully, amazingly clever?
