Applet

Applet (Marky Smith, 2004) is a collector-grade miniature dwarf bearded iris that delivers a vivid, gallery-worthy impact in any garden. Standing just 7" (18 cm) tall, this late midseason bloomer is celebrated for its rich, saturated deep burgundy standards and falls (RHS 187A), with subtly browner shoulders adding painterly depth. The lavender style arms with a purple midrib and luminous old gold beards create a refined, color-forward contrast, while the ruffled form and pronounced spicy fragrance elevate its boutique-caliber appeal. With a pedigree tracing to 'Incendiary', 'Chubby Cheeks', and 'Dark Vader', and accolades including the Honorable Mention (2009) and Award of Merit (2011), Applet is a dynamic, pedigree-worthy showpiece—perfect for the front of borders or rock gardens where its charismatic presence and memorable fragrance can truly shine.
