EDGE OF HEAVEN

Pale copper standards with rippled and gently crinkled edges, falls of the same colour but clearly lighter which are also rippled and crinkled to frame an orange beard. A magnificent stem, with low branches, very large flowers and plenty of buds: between 10 and 11 on average. One of the last to flower.

The blues with red beards are not numerous that is why we do like this one common from the good PAUL BLACK. Standards and falls mid blue-violet lighten by the bright red-orange beards. Moderately ruffled and great stalks.

New bicolour that combines many qualities: charm, perfect shape, long flowering, 9 to 12 buds, great vigour. Pinkish apricot standards, soft rosy lavender falls much paler around the tangerine beard. Quite rightly it won first prize at the Florence iris competition in 1996.

Excellent variety with dark violet standards marked with white in the centre and pure white falls with a clearly drawn dark blue-violet bordure 1cm wide. Very floriferous with 8 to 12 buds.

Light and glistening havana brown infused golden yellow beside gold beards. Dykes French Medal in 1931.

Two tones of pink: purplish pink standards and peach pink falls, paler in centre, with deep red-orange beards. Large flowers with gentle ruffles, good growth.
