American Classic

American Classic (Schreiner, 1996) is a commanding tall bearded iris that lives up to its name with a gallery-worthy presence in the garden. Reaching 36" (91 cm) and blooming from early to late season, this award-winning variety features luminous white standards edged in a vivid 1" band of violet blue, complemented by matching violet blue style arms. The falls are crisp white, dramatically outlined with a 1/2" violet blue plicata edge, and finished with light blue-white beards tipped in yellow. Heavily ruffled petals add sculptural elegance and movement. With its painterly color contrast and pedigree—Honorable Mention 1998, Award of Merit 2001—American Classic is a collector-grade, show garden standout that brings a refined, unforgettable impact to any landscape.
