Fortunate Son Iris
WOW!^™ Iris! It took 35 Years of Breeding to Produce this Superior, Unusually Vigorous Red!

Red is the most sought-after Iris color, partly because it is beautiful, and partly because it is so hard to find. The red genes seem to carry a weak growing trait, so they are hard to reproduce. However, the breeder of Fortunate Son has spent literally a career's time on creating this new red, and boy! is it worth the wait! Huge size, excellent form with broad, spreading falls, intense ruby red color highlighted with a unique blue beard - and it is a robust grower! What a winner! Blooms early midseason on strong 37-inch stems.
