PHOTO SHOOT (T. Johnson ’19)
TB Midseason-Late 36” (91cm)
A super clean and sharp pattern really makes PHOTO SHOOT stand out with its pristine white ground and precise blue to violet dotting around both the standards and falls. A dark violet black bar across the hafts and deep purple style arms add to the drama. Even the beards add a bit of mystery being yellow in the throat then becoming lighter with violet tips. Super nice ruffled form completes the package. Not just another purple plicata!

PIECE BY PIECE (T. Johnson ’21)
TB Mid 36” (91cm)
White ground standards are almost completely sanded and dotted gold, lighter in the center. Falls are white with deep red violet hafts and rim at distal end of petal. The border on the sides of the fall is heavily dotted medium lavender. Yellow beards with light lavender tips add to the interest. This is a very interesting and different color combination for a plicata. Very lovely and cheery. A good strong grower with nice stems and buds and classic form. Fantastic! Sadly, for hybridizers the cross tag had faded and I could not read it, so it is unknown parentage.

PLIC SYMPHONY (P. Black '21)
TB Early-Midseason 32” (81cm)
Listen to the changes in rhythm, voice, timbre and harmony of a great symphony and then add a little plic magic to it. The range of colors and markings of ‘Plic Symphony’ is quite appealing. Centers of white standards have random mid violet dotting and midribs transitioning to wide mid plum plic bands. Centers of dark yellow falls are dotted dark red-brown becoming heavier toward dark wine plic bands. Marigold beards are surrounded by a white patch lined and sanded dark brown. Showy clumps of stalks with 3 branches and 8-10 buds.

PUERTO VALLARTA (T. Johnson ’21)
TB Early 36” (91cm)
Puerto Vallarta the iris kind of reminds me of the beautiful sunsets over the ocean on the beach in Puerto Vallarta, thus the name. Brilliant golden yellow standards. Falls have dark yellow hafts that blend to a lighter lemon wash and finally deepening to a mustard yellow edge. Salmon shadings are deeper at the haft becoming a blended wash inside the yellow edge. There is also a large white patch below the intensely saturated yellow/orange beards. A very consistent garden performer with show stems and 9 buds. An easy and strong grower that really adds a bright spot of color in the garden. Super!!
