NEVERTHELESS - 2021 TB

This is a presale. Shipping will be mid to late July. NEVERTHELESS - Tall Bearded Iris HYBRIDIZER COMMENT "Bit of a puzzle, as although it is only half luminata by parentage, it looks much like one. Incurved ruffled standards are pinkish mauve, blending and paling to creamy peach toward the edge. Deeper semi-flared falls pinkish orchid, with faint paler veining and wire edge. Surrounding the orange to fire red beards is a peach cream area devoid of anthocyanin pigmentation. (In luminatas we’re used to seeing, this would be a white area devoid of anthocyanins.) So — we have the paler edges and paler fall veining of luminatas and a similar beard surround but not in white, so is it or isn’t it a luminata? Nevertheless, it is well worth planting for its ease of growth and long season of bloom, with terminal and three branches, seven to ten buds."Grows to 40" and blooms Early to late season.

A Note from Bonnie

Iris rhizomes are best divided and transplanted after the plants finish blooming and have enough time to store nutrition in their roots. July through September is the best time to dig them up in Ohio. All Iris are grown on my farm and shipped from my home, bareroot with foliage and roots attached. Bonus are given on average of 1 for every 5 purchased.. my choice Bonniepetalswings.com
