BELLE ÉTOILE

Very unusual! Greyish yellow standards strongly infused with purplish violet starting from their base, and golden yellow falls tinted with green. Orange-yellow beards. Small, tightly waved flowers, very good branching with up to 9 buds per stalk. Placed 3rd at the Florence International Iris Competition in 2009.

A tendency toward green : olive yellow standards with hues of purple toward the heart. Falls are a paler olive yellow. Lavender beards with greenish tips. Lovely shape, ruffled, freeflowering (7-9 buds on average) and vigorous.

Light pink standards, pinky white falls with heavily encised deep purple veins over centers and outer 1/3 heavily washed grape. Vivid coral tangerine beards. Flowers of moderate size, short but well-branched stalks (staying upright on windy days).

Imposing bright and deep violet perfectly plain. Thick yellow-orange beards ending pale lavender. Full and round flowers, lightly ruffled and firm bodied. Son of ‘Paul Black’ and ‘Rippling River’.

Mid red-brown standards, brown coppered falls and golden yellow beards. One of the first cayeux’s intros in Poilly-lez-Gien.
