TUT'S GOLD

Recent deep navy blue with shining yellow beards. It produces many ruffled flowers, each stem consistently yielding 8 to 10 buds. In addition, it can bloom again later in the summer or beginning of autumn.

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.

Exquisite flowers with pure white standards and falls of the same immaculate white, and a very fine dark blue border. Yellow beards tipped with white, sometimes extended by a white spur. Excellent shape, with tightly crimped edges. Irresistibly charming!

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.

Sibling to 'Tapis Rouge' , yet completely different in its so very pleasant pastel tones. Very light pink beige standards framed by wide and ruffled falls of pale lavender pink turning white toward the centre. Light orange beards.

One of the last to flower and very original! Pale yellow standards and almost horizontal, lavender-white falls. Golden yellow beards extended by a long, white spur tipped with lavender. Very tall, well branched stalks.
