From Mid-America Garden catalog, 2009: INSPIRED (Black 09) TB small flowered Early-Midseason 34” (86cm). Inspired demonstrates the versatility Dolce possesses in creating lovely smaller flowered tall bearded irises. Glittering apricot gilt rims encircle medium dusky rose standards. Medium apricot peach styles lead your eye to mid apricot tan falls incised with darker amber texture veins and rimmed apricot gilt. Bushy red orange beards set the falls ablaze. Rapid growth creates massive clumps filled with well branched and budded show stalks. Inspired makes a compelling case that bigger isn't necessarily better. Become Inspired! Sdlg. M166E: Dolce X (Flights of Fancy x Black I144A = Fleece as White sib). $50.00. |
