I'm not a big fan of collecting Top Medal Winners (either irises or daylilies) just because of the Top Medal, but I do have some.

Titan's Glory 1988 Really nice purple
Jesse's Song 1990 Bought it at our show/sale last spring (it was on the Head Table)
Edith Wolford 1993 Unless I have a second pot of this somewhere, I may have lost it (but that's okay)
Silverado 1994 Maybe... have not seen it bloom
Conjuration 1998 Maybe... have not seen it bloom (and that nursery is prone to mistakes)
Mesmerizer 2002 Space-Ager and one of the few irises here which can hold its own against 'That's All Folks'
Queen's Circle 2007 Had it, lost it, Petruske replaced it, waiting to see it in bloom again
Paul Black 2010 WONDERFUL carnation-like fragrance and contrasting red-orange beard! Lovey dubby
That's All Folks 2013 I still need to find an in-ground spot for this one, where it won't overpower everything else
Haunted Heart 2018 I'm not sure I like it; maybe I'll like it better when/if it's in the ground?
Evaluating an iris seedling, hopefully for rebloom
