MAGICAL WONDERLAND (Thomas Johnson ’26)
TB Midseason-late 35” (89cm) Slight musky fragrance.
Deep plum to grape purple standards rise above light lavender white falls with a deeper lavender wash below the beard, extending out to a wide peach orange band. Magical Wonderland has fantastic form, with very heavy substance. Its flowers are very, very ruffled; it is gorgeous in full bloom. Sdlg. TN27HH: Artificial Intelligence sibling

SUNSHINE HEART (Thomas Johnson ’26)
TB Midseason-late 37” (94cm) Slight fragrance.
Brilliant golden yellow standards rise above falls with a golden yellow center and a reddish violet overlay wash below the beard. The overlay becomes a deep reddish violet band, with a lighter rosy pink narrow edge. Lots going on in this flower for sure. Patterned iris like this one are so fun, in that the longer you look at them the more complex you realize the color scheme is. Sunshine Heart is an easy grower, and flowers heavily on nicely branched and budded stems. Sdlg. TN115YY: Diamond Heart X Dare To Be Different

THERE YOU ARE (Thomas Johnson ’26)
TB Early-midseason 38” (96.5cm) Light musky fragrance.
Medium pink standards rise above very light creamy white falls with a slight pink flush and deeper pink hafts. A wide and pronounced violet blue band frames the fall and brings the whole iris to life. Really good, tall, multi-budded show stems make one stop in their tracks. Really a very elegant and polished iris. Sdlg. TN121A: Conniption Fit X Super Sized sibling

WATCH THAT SCENE (Thomas Johnson ’26)
TB Midseason-late 36” (91cm) Light fragrance.
Deep golden yellow standards rise above yellow ground falls overlaid with a deep mahogany red haft and striped edge. The yellow ground on the fall extends out between the mahogany to create a rayed effect. There is a large lavender area below the orange beard. Quite a busy and dramatic flower. Sdlg.
