MIDNIGHT TREAT

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).

Imposing and elegant pure white widely ruffled. Discreet ivory beards. Excellent stems with often 4 flowers blooming at the same time. 4th prize at the international competition of Florence in 1997.

Provides a refreshing sight and great artistic value: white standards toned in lemon-yellow at the base; white falls shouldered with lemon yellow with a discrete lemon-toned border. Beards of the same lemon yellow. Nicely ruffled flowers. Stalks carry 3-4 and 9 to 12 buds.

Clear yellow standards turning to white on edges. Almost horizontal falls , white with a wide purple pink border (12 to 15 mm). Orange yellow beards.

Light blue standards, deeper in center ; near-white falls gentian-blue wash on midline . Yellow orange beards, pale violet at base, ending with a short bluebird blue horn. Ruffled and very vigorous.

A strongly coloured iris which we are proud to name after a great French courtier! Soft yellow standards above falls of the same yellow with a wide, raspberry red border, strongly waved like the folds of a courtier's costume. Large flowers carried on tall, well-branched stems.
