Benson

Benson (Schreiner, 2021) is a remarkable Standard Dwarf Bearded iris that delivers a bold, sunlit impact to the early spring garden. Standing at 9.5" (24 cm), this collector-grade variety features dramatic dark bronze standards rising above rich, sunny leather-toned falls, all punctuated by vivid orange beards. Its saturated, high-contrast palette and sculptural form create a gallery-worthy presence that’s both memorable and visually commanding. With a distinguished pedigree from 'Pele' x 'Photon' crossed with 'Tickety Boo', Benson is a testament to masterful hybridizing. Notably, this iris is reported to rebloom in California and is suitable for USDA Zone 8b, offering the potential for a second flush of dazzling color. Available at Amethyst Creek Farm, Benson is a dynamic, color-forward bloom that elevates any landscape with its radiant, unforgettable charm.
