Blooms better in partial shade than most. Small
blooms by today's standards and historic, tailored form, but the vibrant
colors make it stand out, even among modern cultivars. Recessive amoena, pod
and pollen fertile.
Strong growth and bloom habits. Great colors!
These are beautiful tall bearded Irises.
All of these Irises are grown in
my own garden without chemicals.
