2013, Hedgecock

'Shoofly Blues' (Jim Hedgecock, R. 2013). Seedling# Q-122-C. 37" (94 cm), Midseason bloom. Standards blue-violet, ruffled; falls blue-violet, large white area around beard, heavily ruffled, fluted; beards white, white-blue horn. 'October Sky' X seedling# L-115:('Kickapoo Spears' X 'Star Sailor'). Comanche Acres 2013.

Hybridizer's comment: Superb substance and form are some of the wonderful traits of this new iris. The standards are ruffled violet blue. The falls are heavily ruffled and fluted violet blue with large white areas at the beards. The beards are white and they end in short blue-white horns. Excellent stalks with 8 buds and show stalks round out our new creation.
