BREAK MY HEART (T. Johnson ’21)
TB Mid-Late 36” (91cm)
The first of many introductions this year from the wonderful parent Dressed to the Nines. White standards with lemon centers becoming faint veining to petal edge. Falls are a deep rich red violet with a very light lavender band and then a gold edge. The beards are tangerine tipped violet. Very nice ruffled form on fantastic show stems. Break My Heart is a strong bloomer covering itself with flowers. Fabulous!!

BUBBLY BEAUTY (P. Black ‘20)
TB Midseason-Late 34” (86cm)
She is the belle of the ball with her full figure draped in sumptuous pink ruffles and lace. Standards are mid pink with no trace of peach. The creamy white complexion of the falls is washed overall mid pink with darker pink texture veins. Fluffy coral pink beards coordinate well with this fine couture. She has a strong sweet perfume. Three branches provide 7-8 buds. ‘Bubbly Beauty’ is being used heavily in pursuit of blues with pink beards.

BUDGIE (T. Johnson ’21)
SDB Mid 13” (33cm)
Flashy canary yellow with a yellow patch around the beard, then a diffused rust spot encircled by a wide canary yellow border. What really makes Budgie stand out is the ruffled, rounded petals and the overall symmetrically round flowers. Very cute indeed!!

BURGUNDY RULES (B. Blyth ’21)

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!!
