CAPE PERPETUA

A tendency toward green : olive yellow standards with hues of purple toward the heart. Falls are a paler olive yellow. Lavender beards with greenish tips. Lovely shape, ruffled, freeflowering (7-9 buds on average) and vigorous.

Again one of our favourites among the new varieties of 2015. Creamy white flowers deeply infused with soft lemon yellow tones on the borders. Exquisite shape, firm substance and many small and tight ruffles. An abundance of flowers (10 to 12 on average).

Barium yellow, deeper on falls except around the orange beards. Nice shape and edges with serrated ruffles. Good grower and it often reflowers in September or October.

The cross "Chevalier de Malte" with "Conjuration" has given us many good seedlings, "Aurélie" is one of them. It has white standards with lavender on their edges and flaring purple-violet falls with a large white centre. The thick red beard ends in a white spur. Well-branched stalks. Winner at the Florence iris competition in 2007.

This son of our famous iris "Noctambule" has inherited its height and its elegance. Slightly open, pure white standards and nearly horizontal, rich mid to navy blue falls. Egg-yolk yellow beards on a white background bring luminosity to the heart of the flower. Sharp, pure colour contrast.

Light rosy wine standards and clear amethyst falls with bright yellow beards. Grows well and flowers generously.
