I just found this thread in searching for a Van Liere iris I have, so I'm resurrecting it. I got this Van Liere BY HOOK OR BY CROOK (2021) as a free bonus when I ordered from Iris4U last year, and it just bloomed. I must move it as the solid white fencing doesn't flatter its coloring, but wow! I'm absolutely in love with the form! Curved, closed standards, not overly ruffled, and softly flaring falls. It is supposed to have horns and this bloom doesn't, but maybe subsequent blooms may. What do you think?
Different lighting, but perhaps a better look at the form
And it's tall! 1 year old plant, FFE, 41"
