Chestnuts and Robins

Chestnuts and Robins (Gordon and Lorraine Nicholson, 2005) is a truly singular Tall Bearded iris, celebrated for its painterly contrast and refined detail. Reaching 34" (86 cm) and blooming in the early midseason, this cultivar features luminous bluish white standards and style arms that set off the rich, rusty brown falls, each elegantly edged with a crisp white rim. A dramatic purple line at the tip of the yellow beard and a distinctive white spray pattern on both sides of the beard add graphic flair and visual intrigue. The overall effect is both bold and sophisticated, with a color-forward, exhibition-ready design. Noteworthy for its slight sweet fragrance and eye-catching edge trim, Chestnuts and Robins is a garden showpiece bred from Foxy Lady x Flamenco and introduced by Woodland in 2005—a must-have for those seeking a memorable, curator-worthy bloom with aromatic appeal.
