Great historics. We have SDB Boo in our garden & it was not dug to move west last year. Hope to do so this spring, as Lynn Markham was a good friend.

iris


I doubt that is Everything Plus because Everything Plus is a plicata with a dotted rim. Yours is a smooth rim. I am on my phone so can't post a database pic for comparison but encourage you to look at the pictures in the database. Your iris are quite pretty, I just think that one is mislabeled or you received it with the wrong name .

Is the bottom one a dwarf?

Celebration Song does not have yellow standards. It has pink or "apricot pink" standards.

Here is my photo of it. I got it direct from the hybridizer, Schreiners.
. Some photos in the database show it more apricot, but definitely not yellow. Mine is bloomng in shade, so it experiences less fading to apricot tones.

I had to wait three years for this one. First year it didn't bloom, second I accidentally snapped off its stalks before they were ready, and finally, yay, last year it did it's thing Smiling
It grew huge and freakishly tall though--way over the registered height. Smells divine and I do like it, so I'm pondering relocation spots where it can be huge. And I have too many new ones in my 'wish cart' right now...resistance is futile
