Beautiful bright yellow flowers with a rose band around the falls, Great form!Hybridizer comment: Sunny chrome lemon to aureolin yellow standards and falls, the latter shaded with a fairly wide marginal band of warm, rusty brownish-rose color. Sunny bright beards of deep golden glow. Terminal plus three branches, seven buds. Good ruffled form, good branching, good garden presence . A most welcome mix of sunshine and shade.Mid season bloom 36"
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 rhizomes are always included at an average rate of 1 for every 5 purchased...my choice.
