Bright yellow beards continue this colorful theme. Well-branched stalks have up to 10 buds. |
|
 | | | T.Johnson 07; For those who have enjoyed the alluring fragrance of 'Paul Black' and want fragrance in their irises, SCENTED WONDER is for you. It has the same lovely perfume and is a gorgeous garden iris with more subtle tones to act as a foil for more bold colors. Standards and styles are palest slate blue with style crests rimmed in tan. Light, slate lavender falls have brassy gold hafts and narrow tan rims. If the flower seems a bit boring, never fear; large, screaming orange-red beards assure SCENTED WONDER won't be overlooked. Myriads of smaller, lightly ruffled flowers are a visual delight. We recommend it for IB breeding. |

|
 | | | T.Johnson 08; Snapshot may be short of stature but you won’t overlook the powerful presence of its bright colors in your garden.

|
 | | | Blyth 06; Medium lavender-blue standards shaded paler toward edges. White falls barely tinted lavender and a bit darker margins. Soft mango beards. A quality pastel beauty with lots of ruffles. |
|
 | | | Black 07; If you like hot, sizzling, vivid colors, then SOME LIKE IT HOT is for you. It positively glows. Even with its shorter stature, it will still attract a long line of admirers. Standards are dark, rich apricot heavily infused rose up their midribs. Strongly flared falls are velvety black-cherry with precise 1/8 inch bands of iridescent red. Burnt orange beards complement both standards and falls. Heavily ruffled flowers are wide and blocky giving them a very masculine feeling. |
|
 | | | Keppel 09; Charcoal plum standards and sanded, veined plicata bands on creamy lemon falls. |
|
 | | | T.Johnson '09; Sordid Lives is as colorful and twisted as the movie by the same name. Pure-hearted white standards haloed in gold are in divine contrast to the raucously colored and blatantly ruffled falls. Falls blend from white to light yellow with centers wildly washed, mottled, and dotted rose magenta to darker rose over centers leaving wide blended bands of off-white to yellow. Hafts are veined and sanded plum. Add to it zany yellow gold beards and you have an unforgettable experience. Strong show stalks with 3-4 branches and 8-11 buds arise from clean, healthy purple base foliage. |

Plants are robust with wide, healthy blue-green foliage. Stalks are show-branched. |
|
 | | | T.Johnson '09; Spring arrives and with it comes the crazy weather, the Spring Madness that gardeners have learned to cope with. Ruffled, bright white standards have a fine network of yellow veins overall and yellow intensification at bases. Hafts of ruffled white falls are overlaid with brown veins and sanding between veins. Centers are washed mid yellow, lighter below beards to darker descending the falls and ending in wide white bands. Centers have muted brown veins that become clearer and darker at lower, middle edges. White styles with yellow crests arch above bright yellow orange beards. Well branched stalks produce 7-8 of these unique and colorful flowers. |
|

|
| | | Lauer 08; Rose pink standards. White falls with lilac purple plicata rim and lines over hafts. |
|
 | | | T.Johnson 07; Standards are pearlescent white tinted palest lavender. Ruffled and flared falls are the same blushed pale rose over hafts and the STEEPLES are hairy lavender horns ascending from coral beards straight to the skies. Growth is strong and coming from these parents, show stalks are the norm. Sweet fragrance. |
|
 | | | Bianco 07; Lavender standards. Terracotta falls with heavy white venations over hafts. Neat color and pattern. |
|
 | | | T.Johnson '09; Think Tina Turner, think spike heels, think slender violet horns at the end of orange beards, think Stilettos, now you have the picture. Strongly ruffled and laced blue pink standards surround peach pink styles. Ruffled and laced, paler buff pink falls have slightly darker hafts and margins. Statuesque stalks have 3-4 branches and 8-10 buds. Stilettos is a real class act. Enjoy the show. |
|
 | | | Black '09; Yes, you’ll smell the Stolen Sweets of this very fragrant iris with a little whiff of citrus coupled with a little sweet talcum powder. It is a lovely fragrance. Satiny, heavily ruffled cold white flowers are decorated with narrow, bright yellow lacy edges and hafts. Bright neon orange beards draw you closer to enjoy the perfume. Growth is robust giving show stalks with 3-4 branches and 10-12 buds. Stolen Sweets is a real show stopper in clump. |
|
 | | STOP FLIRTING (f) | $SOLD OUT |

|
| | STOP THE TRAFFIC (f) | $22.00 |

|
 | | | T.Johnson '09; Like a peacock with dazzling color, this one will Strut its stuff. Standards are dazzling mid orchid with matching styles. Frilly style crests are accented with dark red plum edges. Velvety black falls have an unusual metallic sheen and are enhanced by deeply chiseled texture veins. Narrow, iridescent fuchsia purple laced edges reinforce the standard color. Very dark root beer brown beards are a perfect finishing touch. Three branches have 9-10 buds. |
|
 | | | Black 07; STRUT YOUR STUFF is without doubt a leader full of charisma and potential. It is being used heavily in my quest to create a flower with pink standards and pink bands around blue falls. Standards and wide, precise bands around falls are dutch chocolate with some plum thrown in. The remainder of the fall is medium lavender-violet. Beards are violet-blue. Stalks are tall with show branching. Growth is healthy with plenty of increase. Enjoy its uniqueness. |
|
 | | | T.Johnson '09; It definitely is highly Stylized with ruffles, ruffles, and more fluted ruffles and fascinating color. Large icy white flowers have 2/3rds of fall centers heavily and overall washed mid lavender, blending paler to leave wide icy white bands. Plum hafts direct the eye to smoldering dark orange beards laid over what appears to be almost black bases. Stylized makes a stunning clump full of show stalks with 3 branches and 9-10 buds. It should be an exceptional parent for exciting colors and great plant habits. |
|
| | | Blyth 07; Ruffled cream to creamy white with subdued ivory band on falls. Pale lemon beards. |
|
| | | Schreiner 06; Classy white with just a whisper of pink coating. Lacy edges. Tall show stalks. |
|
 | | | T.Johnson 04; Beautifully formed, precisely ruffled, bright yellow-gold. Splendid show stalks. |
|
 | | | Keppel 04; Brilliant dark gold with chrome-yellow beards. |
|
 | | | Black 07; Watch as the bright yellow sun descends toward the multi-hued colors of the sky in its journey to the horizon. What a colorful display it creates. Standards are bright, sunny yellow becoming yellow-gold silhouettes on fall hafts. Fall centers are lavender blending to softer rosy mauve tones. Each flower shimmers with diamond dusted elegance. Beards are fully saturated deep golden yellow. Smaller flowers are born in abundance on evenly spaced show stalks. SUNSET SILHOUETTE is a favorite because of its clean growth and great clump appeal. |
|
 | | | T.Johnson 07; She has it all, grace, charm, looks, and poise - she's a SUPER MODEL. This SUPER MODEL excels where other heavily laced violet types have failed. When she finishes blooming there is still plenty of increase left. Many visitors to the AIS convention this past year remarked on that trait. Perfectly formed medium lilac flowers are edged in heavy crinkled lace. With all this lace, SUPER MODEL still opens easily. Strong show stalks normally open two well placed flowers at once. Be the first one on your block with your own SUPER MODEL. Hopefully this will be the key to unlock the overbloom problem in this color range. |
|
| | | Richardson 09; Big and ruffled. Light blue standards flushed blue. Ice blue white falls. |
|
 | | | Blyth 04; Light lavender standards. Opaque pale lavender falls with web of lilac veins and wash creating a dramatic eyelash pattern around white tipped red beards. Essence of distinctiveness. |
