Drama Queen

Drama Queen (Keith Keppel, 2002) is a legendary Tall Bearded iris that delivers a gallery-worthy spectacle in the garden. Towering at 38" (97 cm), this early midseason bloomer is renowned for its extraordinary color play: near-solid, blackish cyclamen purple standards create a moody, opulent canopy, subtly illuminated by a faint golden buff at the base. The style arms are artfully blended in rose brown and slate purple, adding painterly depth and intrigue. The falls are a masterpiece of cyclamen purple, dramatically veined and blazed with golden capucine buff, while the beards—rusty orange with purple and white layers—provide a vivid, color-forward accent. A slight sweet fragrance adds a refined, luxe touch to this already captivating iris. With a pedigree from 'Tangled Web' x 'Epicenter', Drama Queen has earned top honors, including the Wister Medal and the prestigious American Dykes Medal. Rebloom has been reported in British Columbia, making it a dynamic, collector-grade addition for those seeking both performance and pedigree. A true showpiece for any garden, Drama Queen is available at Amethyst Creek Farm.
