The seedling reminds me a bit of "Spiral Galaxy". I really like the bold lines on the Yellow Falls. Quite striking.

There are some I had on my wishlist too. All good though, always next year!

Seedling




Roger doesn't have a lot of seedlings any more, but this one caught our eye this morning. Duncan seedling 14-A-01-09. Not sure whether we like the coloration or not, but we decided we want to look at it again next year. Kind of a mid blue over light milk chocolate/cafe-au-lait, hard trying to capture the fall color exactly. 7-8 buds on a very good stalk. Parentage is a Duncan seedling (Party's Over x unknown) X a Tasco seedling (Sunset Storm x Party's Over).

Note from Misawa77 : Maybe Roger needs to do more crosses! This is a really nice seedling. Maybe this can be the start of another "line" for you.

The falls are wonderful on that seedling!

We grow Party's Over. & would like to play with it, but not as a TB. Hope we can save pollen to use. glad to see that it can be used as the pod parent.

Here is another picture of M. Sutton's 2015 introduction TB "Pattern Play"

Keppel TB 2015

Like that seedling with the chocolate falls!

Me too!!!!

I am very surprised that more of the dwarfs are not sold out. They have produced fantastic dwarfs! Is it just that many are done blooming by the open weekends?

Buy Inner Space people!!

Inner Space



Here are a few pictures to help the process!

I just think Rick needs to be recognized for his great dwarf iris. People are already gaga for his TB's, but his work with medians is really nice too.



(and a chocolate scent even!)



And so many more!

and that isn't even getting to the IB's and all!



(luminata!)

And so many more!

I did, I did
already order several dwarfs, that is--
Inner Space was one, and then I had to add to my order
because this one

kept calling to me and I could not resist

I felt that way about Morning Hues too. I have it on order!

I'm completely smitten with Morning Hues! That clump shot Greg posted a while back was the most gorgeous image- its still seared into my brain. Hope to order that one next year.

I did however order all those IBs above- very excited about them!

Have grown some & ordered Morning Hues & Chocolate Swirl this year. I was not impressed with Sky Ray compared to other plicatas.

I like Sky Ray's stripes.
