CHERRIES AND CREAM (B. Blyth ‘20)

Falls are plush burgundy with 3/16” well defined edge of soft lilac. Beards are bronze over purple giving a very dark effect. Very wide and ruffled and plenty of buds give a long bloom season.

TOTALLY CHARMED (B. Blyth ’21)
TB Mid. 37” (94cm)
Apart from its excellent production of show stems, this lovely Iris should really charm the judges. The standards are white with a faint flush of soft pink at the midribs. The falls are wide and lightly ruffled and pastel peach over cream. Some light tan veining radiating from the hafts. Very fertile. Organza, its pod parent is proving to be a super parent.

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.

AMERICA’S TOP MODEL (Paul Black 23)
TB Early-Midseason 36” (91cm)
Slight sweet fragrance Isn’t she stunning as she glides down the runway! Pristine white standards encapsulate white styles rimmed pink. Silken, diamond dusted creamy falls wash to pale buff edges. Mid pink beards assure her couture is anything but common. Hybridizers have worked many years for whites with pink instead of orange beards and finally here it is. Well-branched stalks have 3 branches and 7 buds. Sdlg. AA98A: W77A: (S74OO: (Kiss of Passion x All My Dreams) x S53A: (Royal Sterling x Giorgio)) X Y18A: (Multnomah Falls x Strawberry Shake)

A MILLION DREAMS (T. Johnson ’23)
TB Midseason-Late 36” (91.5cm)
Sweet fragrance. Clear pink standards. Falls are lavender pink with pink touched hafts and shrimp beards. Very large and full wide flowers on perfect show stems. The simpler ruffling and clarity of color make for a knockout garden iris. Impressive to say the least! Sdlg. TL1B: Arrivederci X Hospitality.

BRILLIANT DEBUT (Thomas Johnson ’23)
TB 38” (96.5cm)
Sweet fragrance. White standards with yellow centers and irregular lemon markings at the petal edges. Falls are deep lemon yellow with a white area below bright orange beards. Not just another yellow and white iris, there was no denying this one’s introduction. Highly visible from clear across the field on its tall well branched stems.

ONLY ONE FOR ME (T. Johnson ’23)
TB Midseason-late 36” (91.5cm)
Light sweet fragrance. Pink Standards and hafts over medium lavender falls. Huge blocky flowers with excellent form are carried on show stems. Check out the differing shots of it on the website. The color can be quite different with lighting, different days or even different years. Generally, the more overcast and cooler that it is the darker the color.

RAISIN IN THE SUN (Black '20)
AB OGB- Early-midseason 28" (71cm)
Here's quite a different colored arilbred. Mid yellow gold flowers are punctuated by big
chestnut signals. Two nicely space branches and 6 buds. Easy grower. Sdlg. X155A: Aztec Prince X All My Dreams

DREAM OF DREAMS (Paul Black 23)
SDB Late-Very Late 15” (38cm)
Pronounced sweet fragrance This little jewel represents one more refinement in a many generations quest for late blooming, multi-budded and branched stalks with shorter foliage so all flowers can be seen. I place it close to the top of my breeding accomplishments. Clear mid yellow flowers are born on 2 branches plus spur and 7-8 buds. That sort of stalk and buds would make even a TB proud. Stalks are mid slate purple. Now the challenge is to add more colors and patterns. Imagine the breeding potential represented here. An easy candidate for “Queen of Show”. Sdlg.

SHE’S BEAUTIFUL (Paul Black 23)
TB Midseason-Late 36” (91cm)
Slight sweet fragrance Another project breeders have pursued for many years is putting a pink beard on a blue or purple iris. It seems loads of baby steps still haven’t gotten us there. These icy blue-white blooms coral pink beards. I probably don’t have enough years left to make it to the goal on this one. I’ll have to be content with it in my dreams. Sdlg.

DREAMS ALIVE (T. Johnson ’25)

MAID OF GOLD (P. Black '25)
