Embellished

Embellished (Keith Keppel, 2023) is a remarkable tall bearded iris that commands attention with its extraordinary color play and sculptural form. Standing at 35" and blooming late in the season, Embellished features luminous oyster to marguerite yellow standards with subtle lavender shading, complemented by wisteria violet style arms and a dramatic abbey violet fall edged in a paler hue. A burnished gold thumbprint on the inner hafts and extreme ruffling add to its gallery-worthy appeal, while the beards transition from cadmium yellow in the throat to chrome yellow and end in vivid blue. With its pedigree-worthy lineage and dynamic, show garden presence, Embellished is a true centerpiece for any collector or landscape enthusiast. Available at Amethyst Creek Farm.
