This new and luscious combination carries numerous elegantly ruffled flowers (11 on average) which feature medium-sized standards. The nearly horizontals falls of amaranth, with borders which turn to a light pink copper tone, are nicely echoed by bronze-coloured beards. We are pleased to have named this exquisite variety in memory of Madame Tardivier, former director of the Jardins des Tuileries at the Louvre.

Delicate pink standards. Deep rose-violet plicata markings and peppering on edge of falls which have a white background. Yellow beards. It is a robust iris with large flowers and 8 to 9 buds.

Amply ruffled white standards, blue-violet falls slightly paler under the orange beards. It has inherited the perfect form of his mother : GYPSY LORD. 8 buds on average. This is an honour for us to named this new Cayeux’s iris after the prestigious castle of Ussé on the river Loire.

Imagine pure white standards, honey-yellow falls and vivid bright tangerine beards and you will understand our enthusiam fot this unique Australian amoena. In addition, good growth and stalks.

Standards between cream and yellow, medium yellow falls green tinted. Yellow beards. Many moderate sized flowers and good reflowering at beginning of fall. (Byers 1988)

The offspring of 'Ciel Gris sur Poilly', it features standards of white infused with yellow at the base which are framed with falls o smoky yellow that turn to a soft beige-grey along the edges. The beards are of a bright corn-yellow. A quite unique tone combination!
