Beige white standards with a hint of smooth lilac on edges; milky white falls with a clean and pretty border plicata style. Bushy orange beards that you see from far. Flowers of moderate size with a lot of small ruffles. So nice !

Warm butter yellow standards, burgundy red falls lighter around the discreet orange beards. A reliable long-flowerer, it brings a new contrast to the category variegata. Easy to propagate.

Wonderful contrast between the pure white standards and the velvety, very dark violet falls, nearly black when the flower first opens. Deep egg yolk yellow beards light up the whole. Moderately sized flowers with ruffled edges, a well-proportioned plant. We are very happy to call this iris after the famous Gien pottery in our neighbouring town.

A very delicate pattern for this plicata: falls are starch white with a thin magenta purple seam (6mm wide). Standards are of the same colour but with a wider border. Yellow beards with white tips. Abundant flowering: 10-12 buds per stalk.

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.

Bright yellow standards and golden yellow falls sanded with white near the orange-yellow beards. It does not burn under hot sun. Good grower. (Smith 1992)
