SORTILEGE

Creamy white standards infused with yellow, falls with a soft yellow centre and wide amethyst border diffusing towards the centre. Orange yellow beards. Large, wavy flowers, very well branched stems and 8 to 9 buds on average. (Cayeux 10 440A seedling).

Horizontal coppery amber standards of velvet, somewhere between solid crimson-violet and aubergine tones. The flowers stand firmly, boasting their very ruffled edges and burned orange toned beards.

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!

Interesting and very unusual colour contrast between the pale blue standards and the bluish-black velvety falls. Black-purple beards tipped yellow. This very recent iris (introduced in the USA in 2004) has strong stalks and propagates very quickly.
