TRENDING (T. Johnson ’19)
TB Midseason 37” (94cm)
A difficult blending of colors to describe. Standards are eggshell white with opal pink blushed centers. Falls are Lavender with an eggshell rim. What really sets this off is the beard. The beard is violet with orange hair tips becoming more solid dark blue to violet at the end. Gorgeous form on nice show stems compete the effect. We love this iris!!

TROPICAL BREEZE (T. Johnson ’20)
TB Midseason 36” (91.5cm)
Standards are flesh pink with peach edges. Falls are flushed slightly lighter flesh pink with a wide blended peach band. Beards are kind of a strange mango peach. A very different and very pretty color combination.

TRUE COLORS (K. Keppel ’20)
TB Early-mid 34” (86cm)
Yellow-orange standards. Falls violet in the center lightening slight to a blended peach-violet blend. Beards tangerine. Beautiful clean bicolor!

TRUTH OR DARE (T. Johnson ’18)
TB Late 36” (91cm)
A total new pattern in TBs is emerging. We have loved this one from its maiden bloom. Garden nickname had been “pansy face” because it reminds us of a pattern you would find on a Pansy flower. Standards are lemon yellow deeper at the base. Falls are white with a faint yellow halo band near edge of petals. What really sets this flower off is the dramatic rusy to red central signal that surrounds the orange beard. Not the easiest of parents but from what we have bloomed from it so far it is well worth the effort. Nice stem with up to 8 buds.

TULA (T. Johnson ’21)
SDB Mid 12” (30.5cm)
Named after our little dog, Tula is a beauty that was labeled for introduction since its maiden bloom. Standards are an off white with light violet plicata dots and lemon flush throughout. Falls are interesting with white ground overlaid almost completely with deeper violet plicata dots. Adding to the interest are deep violet veins that extend from around the beard to petal edge. All of this is highlighted by very shocking medium lemon style arms that are very visible, creating a strong contrast. Three buds, good growth and bloom habits make this a garden favorite and a fun parent.

TWINKLE LITTLE STAR (P. Black ‘20)
MDB Midseason-Late 7” (18cm)

UNDER DOG (P. Black ‘19)
TB Midseason-Very Late 36” (91cm)
Big ruffled blooms have standards of mid dusky spiced rose that repeats in 3/4” wide blended bands on light rosy butter falls. Soft tangerine beards add a touch of persuasion. Strong growth produces show stalks with 3 branches and 9-10 buds. Color lightens with age.

UNTAMED GLORY (T. Johnson ’21)
TB Mid 28” (71cm)
Untamed Glory is a novelty iris. It very consistently has six falls and no standards, but instead of going completely flat they hold in the shape of a magnolia bloom. It is very reminiscent in form of a very old cultivar by Opal Brown called Pink Magnolia. A clump of Untamed Glory will completely cover itself with these large ruffled salmon pink flowers with irregular white broken color. Definitely an iris for those who love the novelties.

A lovely clean and ruffled bicolor iris. Standards are icy white with light lemon highlights especially shot up the midrib.

WHY BE NORMAL (T.Johnson ‘14)
TB Midseason-Late 35” (89)
No reason that I can think of to be normal when you can be outrageous. ‘Why Be Normal’ is a true flat iris, one having no standards and six falls with beards rather than one that merely has weak standards. Mid caramel falls have mid brown hafts and center stripes extending from mid mustard gold beards. Nest of white styles with gold crests is very cool. Nicely branched stalks have no trouble supporting these large flowers.

Beards are orange tipped white. A very flashy flower that leaves an impression. Outstanding garden appeal. Nice show stems with 9 buds.
