Heavily ruffled falls are a repeat of standard color and patterning. Styles are dark indigo black. Show stalks have 3 branches and 9-10 buds. Healthy blue-green foliage is impervious to leaf spot.

COAT OF MANY COLORS (T. Johnson ’21)
TB Mid 34” (86cm)
This iris is a very complex mix of colors and is hard to describe. I think it is best to just look at the picture. The name Coat of Many Colors seems to fit it well. Nicely branched stems and good bud count combined with lovely ruffled form make it a winner for sure. On top of all of that it is a hybridizers dream, giving some of the most awesome patterns in the seedling patch this past season. Coat of Many Colors is the product of two Barry Blyth seedlings. Recommended!!

COLOR WHEEL (P. Black ‘17)

Wow, wild splashes of color make ‘color wheel’ a most desirable addition to your garden. The upper third of standards is etched with gold veins while centers are blushed peach pink. Heavily ruffled falls have mid peach centers blended to cream then widely banded with irregularly washed red grape bands that are then narrowly banded oxblood and finally pale silvery lilac. A wide eye-poping beard is bright orange to light gold. Two well-spaced branches have 7 buds. Proving to be an excellent parent.

One of the first TB iris to flower and a good splash of color to kick off the season.

CORAL JEWEL (L. Miller ’23)
TB Midseason-late 31” (79cm)
Lightly fragrant. More coral than pink, this self reminds me of the coral jewelry you can obtain in Hawaii. The color always stops me in the garden because of its intensity. The coral-pink is a little creamy around the beards. Beards are coral, lightening to peach at the upturned tip. Flowers are ruffled with slightly crimped edges. Produces 7 to 12 large flowers per stalk. Sdlg. 7316B For Lovers Only X 9013B: (7211: In Love Again x Super Model) x Fiesta Orange))
