Charisma

Charisma (Clarence Blocher, 1976) is a remarkable tall bearded iris that commands attention with its vivid blue self blooms and luminous lemon beard. Reaching 32" (82 cm) and blooming midseason, this cultivar—born from the cross Chim Chim Cheree x Sea Of Stars—delivers a bold, color-forward presence in the garden. Charisma’s pedigree is underscored by a suite of accolades, including the Award of Merit (1982), Judges Choice (1978), and Honorable Mention (1978), making it a collector-grade, exhibition-ready standout. Its saturated blue tones and refined form create a gallery-worthy, field-stopping display that’s both memorable and visually commanding. Hybridized by Clarence Blocher and introduced in 1976.
