FABULEUX

Almost certainly one of our stars in 2016, as all our visitors in spring 2015 approved it across the board. White standards with clearly aubergine-toned edges, falls of a nearly black crimson purple and a luminous burnt-red beard resting on a white area with dark purple striations. Numerous, ruffled and shimmering flowers (9 to 11 buds on average).

Creamy white ruffled standards, their edges tinted very pale lavender. Nearly horizontal falls with a beautiful wide amethyst border (approx 1.5 cm). Orange beards with bright yellow shoulders right along to their ends: a really illuminated centre to the flower which gives it a joyful and innovative character. Strong-bodied, good foliage and excellent branching.

Standards dark lavender; falls same, white blaze spot around beard; beards white. Parentage unknown.

Perhaps the deepest golden iris. The colour is absolutely plain on the whole flower, which has silky falls. A real gleaming beauty!

A descendant of 2 remarkable varieties: 'Blue Temptation' and 'Winterfest'. Very pale lavender blue standards and white falls. Discreet white beards tipped yellow and surrounded by light ochre yellow markings. Perfectly shaped flowers with regular waves. This iris was rightly selected for the magic gardens of Chateau de Chaumont sur Loire by their Director.

A pale salmon pink amoena with mandarin beards tipped with white. Falls bordered with a 5 mm strip of white. Graceful shape and very strong "body". An early, generously flowering variety - up to 9 buds per stem
