Adventurous

Adventurous (Michael Sutton, 2010) is a remarkable tall bearded iris that commands attention with its bold, color-forward design and refined presence. Reaching 35" (89 cm) and blooming in the late midseason, Adventurous features luminous barium yellow standards subtly veined in white, complemented by matching style arms. The falls are a vivid violet blue, veined with light blue and dramatically edged with a 3/4" ruby red band, creating a painterly, high-contrast effect. Barium yellow beards tipped with violet blue and serrated petal edges add to its sculptural, exhibition-grade appeal. A slight sweet fragrance enhances its garden-showpiece quality. Honored with an AIS Honorable Mention in 2014, Adventurous is a pedigree-worthy addition for collectors and those seeking a statement-making centerpiece for their landscape.
