BAIE DES ANGES

€7.00

A very attractive solid light to medium blue with bright tangerine beards. This iris is a descendant of "Princesse Caroline de Monaco" and "Eau Vive", both blue with tangerine coloured beards. Medium sized flowers with a lovely shape. We feel that the pureness of tone compensates for the relatively small number of buds (6-7 on average).

Flowering:Mid-season

BLUE CRUSADER

€7.00

Tall stems, large ruffled flowers, extremely vigorous: it is a new deep violet of noble stature. Beards of the same colour. Each rhizome can produce three or more fans and each stem carries 7 to 8 flowers.

Flowering:Late

BLUE TEMPTATION

€7.00

Marvellous really pure mid-blue, bred from two equally wonderful blues: "Yaquina Blue" and "Oregon Skies". Yellow beards tipped with blue, nearly invisible in this cerulean ocean. Very big flowers (10 cm x 16 cm), gently ruffled.

Flowering:Mid-season

CAPE PERPETUA

€7.00

What's new in "Cape Perpetua"? Not its colour: light and plain blue with white beards, but its shape: both standards and falls show lacy, frilly edges and this is unique in its category. A really charming blue iris!

Flowering:Mid-season to late

DÉFERLANTE BLEUE

€13.00

We named this new blue DÉFERLANTE BLEUE because each stem carries regularly 12 to 14 flowers. Standards are mid to azure blue and falls clear blue. Gold beards ending pale blue. Classic form but exceptional flowering power.

Flowering:Early to mid-season

FRIENDLY SEAS

€6.00

The sturdy moderately ruffled flowers are a charming, totally plain, light blue-violet. Numerous flowers produced on perfect stems (up to 10 buds on each). Light blue-violet beards tipped yellow. Exceptionally vigorous, it rapidly forms big clumps.

GIONO

€13.00

Splendid mid-blue perfectly uniform, without the slightest trace of purple. Orange-yellow beards at the heart, white at their ends, discreet so do not detract from this harmonious blue. Very prolific like it’s parent "Aquamarine". We are honoured that Jean Giono's daughter has agreed to have one of our new irises named after her! (Cayeux sowing 11 266 A).

Flowering:Mid-season

HONKY TONK BLUES

€6.00

Deep wisteria blue mottled or streaked with blended grey-white on the falls. Deep wisteria blue beards. Perfect shape and stems (with 10 buds). Excellent.

Flowering:Mid-season

JAVA BLEUE

€7.00

Dark beauty and a son worthy of our excellent creation "Mer du Sud", "Java Bleue" is of an even more intense and perfectly unified blue - including the beards. The medium-sized flowers are pleasantly but not excessively waved. Numerous buds per stalk, at least 10, ensure a long flowering period. Quite compact foliage.

Flowering:Early to late

LOUISE AUREAU

€9.00

Pleasant light blue , slightly lavender, with golden yellow beards. Thin and well-branched stalks.

Flowering:Mid-season

MER DU SUD

€7.00

A child of the excellent "Dusky Challenger". It is a rich navy blue (almost exempt from violet). Vigorous grower and often three flowers blooming at the same time. Medium blue beards. RHS Award of Garden Merit in 2000.

PACIFIC FIRE

€13.00

The blues with red beards are not numerous that is why we do like this one common from the good PAUL BLACK. Standards and falls mid blue-violet lighten by the bright red-orange beards. Moderately ruffled and great stalks.

Flowering:Early

PRINCESSE C. DE MONACO

€6.00

This is the result of the search for perfection in blue-red bearded irises. It is a pure light blue with orange-red beards. In addition to the purity of the colour, its growth habits, shape of the flowers and count of buds are excellent. Prizewinner at the American Convention and the Florence International Iris Competition in 1998.

Flowering:Early to mid-season

SYMPATHIQUE

€14.00

Light to medium wisteria blue standards, bluish-white falls with crisp red beards. Looks effective in clumps. Flowers of medium size, elegant, good branching and 9 buds on average. From a crossing of ‘Villa Erba’ x ‘Fanchette’. (Cayeux seedling 13,228 A).
