UNDENIABLE (Thomas Johnson ’26)
TB Early-midseason-late 42” (106.5cm) Sweet fragrance.
Slate white standards have a blue flush in the center. Falls are a gorgeous slate lavender blue with a lighter wash area around the blueish white beard. There is also a slightly darker lavender rim on the falls. Undeniable was named for obvious reasons; there was never any doubt that it was going to be released. It has beautiful form on tall, well-branched and balanced stems, and is a very strong grower that blooms and blooms from early to late in the iris bloom season. A truly outstanding garden iris coming from two outstanding parents. Sdlg. TN82ZZ: Private Party X Flirty Tease

UNDERSTATEMENT (Thomas Johnson ’26)
TB Midseason-late 40” (101.5cm) Slight sweet fragrance.
Solid pink standards have a gold edge. Falls are complex for sure. The ground color is a medium lavender with a creamy white area below the beard. The ground is then overlaid with a deep violet wash that clears and becomes a soft lavender pink band with a violet wire rim. Really a unique and stunning color confection. Tall and stately stems with lots of buds make it take center stage for the second half of the bloom season. Sdlg. TN223ZZ: sibling to Most Unusual and Blizzard Warning

WATCHFUL EYE (Thomas Johnson ’26)
TB Early-midseason 39” (99cm) Sweet fragrance.
Light lavender white standards have dark lemon centers and a light lemon touched edge. Falls are a light lavender white with a deep rust haft and a deep violet black flash below the beard. Quite a stunner of an iris, and one that has been much loved in the garden. Tall, well branched and budded stems make it a contender for best in show on the show bench. Sdlg.

YOU’RE BEAUTIFUL (Thomas Johnson ’26)
TB Early-midseason 37” (94cm) Light fragrance.
Light lavender standards have a lighter area with lilac dotting in the center. Deep salmon pink style arms peek out from inside the standards, adding great contrast. Falls are white, with a deep plum purple band and light lavender edge. A deep plum center stripe extends from just below the red-orange beard to the plum band. Another iris that makes a very fine clump and is an easy grower. Sdlg. TO246B: Tenacity X Salmon Springs
