ROSE DE PERSE

An elegant descendant of the excellent "Crowned Heads". Light blue standards and snow white falls with just a touch of greenish yellow near the sunshine yellow beards. Particularly attractive flowers with little ruffling. Vigorous growth.

Medium purplish blue, slightly lighter on the falls. Surprising dark blue beards surrounded by dark red markings. Medium sized, lightly ruffled flowers in keeping with the size of the plant.

From its father, 'Lumarco', it inherited a wonderful delicateness in tone and shape. Boasting standards of pure white, lemon-yellow styles and plicata-like falls with thin light-violet edges. The beard's heart is yellow, the tips white. Good stem with an average of 8 buds.

A strongly coloured iris which we are proud to name after a great French courtier! Soft yellow standards above falls of the same yellow with a wide, raspberry red border, strongly waved like the folds of a courtier's costume. Large flowers carried on tall, well-branched stems.

Rosy violet standards, white showing in centre. White falls dotted and banded with rosy violet. White beards tipped with violet. Moderately ruffled flowers, nicely shaped. Extremely vigorous, it increases very fast because ot its reflowering character (it often blooms again in October).

This is the 3rd seedling brother to 'Confiserie' and 'Attirance' which we introduce : Standards are an intense amethyst and falls in the same tone but slightly bluish around the bronze toned beards tipped with lavender. Exquisite shape with softly ruffled, almost horizontal falls. Excellent branching. (Cayeux Seedling 09 111 D)
