I think Starring is a Ghio iris, not a Tom Johnson. Smiling It is a nice one though for sure.

The other four are indeed Thomas Johnson creations.

It is a gorgeous white, Debra, with a bright yellow beard. But I have not heard that it is a prolific grower. I, I, I may need one too?..... oh, woe is me.
