Cherry Parfait

Cherry Parfait (Thomas Johnson, 2017) is a remarkable tall bearded iris that commands attention with its bold, high-contrast color palette and graphic patterning. Reaching 36" (91 cm) and blooming late in the season, this cultivar features luminous light to medium maroon standards with subtle, deeper veining and matching style arms. The falls are a saturated deep maroon, dramatically accented by crisp white lines radiating from the center halfway down each petal, framed by a medium maroon band and a finely etched deep maroon edge. Burnt orange to dusky orange beards add a vibrant focal point, while a slight fragrance enhances its garden appeal. Cherry Parfait is a show garden-quality selection, awarded Honorable Mention by the American Iris Society in 2021. Bred from Palace Treasure X Fine Drop and introduced by Mid-America in 2017, this iris is a true centerpiece for any collector or enthusiast seeking a vivid, conversation-starting bloom.
