DARING DECEPTION

A good son of the variety "Caliph". Medium brown standards and lighter orange-brown falls, paler below the deep gold beards. Rich colour, excellent garden value.

Wonderfully shaped, amply ruffled pinkish lavender. Wide falls, slightly paler toward the centre. Beards are tangerine toward red. A classic tone but with a quality finishing. Really a useful tone in our gardens! (Cayeux seedling 10 355 A)

Resembling its father, 'Irisades', but with standards of a rather soft yellow with a slightly amber border, and boasting white falls with large purple-pink edges. Beards are of an orange yellow tone on a bed of yellow to brighten up the heart. abundant flowering: 1à tp 12 flowers per stem.

Something new on Planet Iris! White standards with a hint of cream tone. Falls lie semi-horizontally with a white heart infused with olive-yellows framing the beard, then turning to a sustained amethyst tone on the edges. Bright egg-yellow beard with a white tip. Stems with well-balanced buds. (6 to 8 on average).

Bright yellow standards and golden yellow falls sanded with white near the orange-yellow beards. It does not burn under hot sun. Good grower. (Smith 1992)

Pure white standards and white falls with a wide pure mid-blue border. Pale yellow beards. Excellent grower and bloomer. "Alizes" gained the RHS Award of Garden Merit in 2000.
