Standards are smoky caramel, tinged violet. Falls are light lavender-blue, lightening towards edge with a 2 cm cream-yellow border and a lemon yellow blaze to center of beard. Extra wide and vivid tangerine beards, occasional light-lavender horns. Grows to 38" and blooms early through late season.

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.
