Comme Un Volcan

Comme Un Volcan (Michèle Bersillon, 2008) is a gold medal-winning Tall Bearded iris that lives up to its name, translating to "Like A Volcano" with a truly dynamic presence. This midseason, 35" (90 cm) cultivar captivates with blue violet standards edged in a refined grey border, creamy tan style arms marked by a dramatic darker center stripe, and luminous medium violet-blue falls with lighter sides and tan-blended hafts. The bold orange-yellow beards, tipped in very light blue, are further accentuated by unique 3–4 cm blue violet appendages ending in a petite flounce, lending a sculptural, gallery-worthy flair. A slight sweet fragrance adds to its allure. With its painterly color contrasts and boutique-caliber details, Comme Un Volcan is a collector-grade, exhibition-ready centerpiece for any garden.
