NEW FANGLED (P. Black ‘19)
MTB Midseason-Late 20” (51cm)
Definitely some new genes in the quest for better formed and more colorful MTBs and also of shorter stature than most. Standards and styles are pastel peach. Cream falls blend to light slate violet and then to tan gold bands. Tangerine beards are a nice contrast. Two branches plus spur give 7-9 buds.

Oh my is all I keep saying when I walk by this one and look at the beard. The standards are a bit twisted but the deep navy to near black beards are incredible. Strong growth and bloom with three buds per stem. Amazing!

ONE MAN’S ART (B. Blyth ‘19)
TB Early-Mid 35” (89cm)
A stunning color combination. The standards are creamy beige and falls are dusky rose with soft lemon overlay around the burnt tango beards and a 1/4” edge of beige finish it off. Standards are slightly open but firm. Show stems and very fertile. Love this and want to see the seedlings from this Iris.

ONE THAT I WANT (T. Johnson ’21)
TB Early-Late 33” (84cm)
White ground standards overlaid with deep purple just allowing a bit of white to show in the center. Falls are white with a deep purple black band and deep purple black hafts around blue tipped rust beards. This is one long blooming iris. It starts the season and is still flowering when the late bloomers start. Very floriferous and a vigorous grower. Nicely formed wide and ruffled flowers. A quality iris!

ONLY THE SHADOW KNOWS (P. Black ‘20)
TB Midseason-Late 33” (84cm)
It is quite a mysterious iris. Mid-dark slate purple standards have wide light gray tan blended bands. Their interior is a much brighter mid purple. Diamond dusted eggshell falls blend outward to pale butter and have silver gray texture veins. Strong stalks have 3 branches and 6-7 buds. A moderate sweet fragrance is a plus.

OPEN HEART (T. Johnson ’20)
TB Midseason 33” (84cm)
Cream Standards are flushed and washed pink and lavender. Falls have a peach to orange haft area and slightly lighter fall edge. Deep purple diffused lines radiate from below the beards to near petals edge. Even the beards are a strange blend of coral pink to lavender. A lovely color combination that is hard to describe.
