DEEP DARK SECRET

A spicy warm variety: pure bright medium-yellow standards, falls between red and black with a yellow centre that spreads out in fine yellow streaks. The yellow-orange beards quite often end in a little dark red spatula, which gives an extra original note to this "spicy" flower. Winner of the "Public Prize" at Franciris in 2011

Relatively moderate-sized flowers that have a compact shape and exceptional ruffling, dark blackish purple falls and lighter reddish purple standards. Black beards. Good growth.

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.

White standards, toned with yellow at the base. White falls shouldered in golden yellow up to the middle. Equally golden yellow beards. Stalks are exemplary with perfectly tiered branches carrying an average of 9-10 buds. Simply splendid! (Cayeux seedling 10 308 B)

Very big flowers in delicious apricot tones, wide falls slightly paler below the tangerine beards and ruffled standards, tinted peach pink at their base. Excellent colour and good garden value.

A real champion within this category! Huge flowers (16 cm x 11 cm) have a gentle flowing ruffle and the colour is deep royal purple perfectly plain, even the beards are purple. Each 6 to 8 budded stem has 2 to 3 flowers opening simultaneously. Excellent growth.
