Hello Darkness

Tall Bearded Iris

Each ruffled petal has stiff substance and enjoys a rich velvety texture. Strong stems yield three good branches bearing 6-7 buds.

Height: 36-48 in.
 

Bloom Color:
Dark Purple/Black
 

Bloom Time:
Early midseason (EM)
 

American Iris Society Awards:

Honorable Mention 1994,

Award of Merit 1996,

John C Wister Medal 1998,

Dykes Medal 1999

It has a very nice bud count on each flowing stalk, and the individual blooms are very good.
