ONE WAY OR ANOTHER (T. Johnson ’24)
TB Midseason-late 37” (94cm)
Light sweet fragrance. Golden yellow standards and haft and edge on mahogany falls. The center of the falls is a deeper mahogany. A really beautiful and bright bicolor for the late season. Really nicely branched and budded stems. Sdlg. TL229YY: unknown, lost tag

OUT OF CHARACTER (T. Johnson ’24)
TB Early-midseason 38” (97cm)
Sweet fragrance. Deep golden yellow standards, deeper in the center. Falls are a medium blue purple with a wide red haft bar that extends out below the beard and then blends into the blue purple. There is a buff yellow fall edge setting the stage for the wild beards. Beards are yellow with long horns or flounces in shades of purple. Out Of Character was given its name because it is not always consistent with its horns. Some years they are very consistent throughout; other years it is less so. Either way it is a beautiful well- formed iris with excellent growth and stems. Sdlg. TL184XX: What A Circus X ((Tango Express sib x Danger Money) x Hooked On A Feeling)

PLOT TWIST (T. Johnson ’24)
TB Early-midseason 38” (97cm)
Light fragrance. Salmon pink standards. Falls are a medium blue purple with a wide deep red violet lined bar completely covering the haft and extending out the length of the beard. Your eyes will immediately be drawn to the very large and showy red beards. A very distinctive and fun iris for sure, with excellent growth and well branched show stems. Sdlg.

PRETTY RICH (T. Johnson ’24)
TB Early-midseason 40” (102cm)
Slight fragrance. If you have ever wondered what that iris is on the homepage of the website, well here it is. Pretty Rich likely will never win on the show bench, as the stems are a bit high branched and tighter budded. However, the flowers open sequentially, clumps have a long season of bloom, and the color is to die for. Very strong growth and beautiful healthy foliage add to its garden value. Sdlg.
