Exotic Star

Exotic Star (Gordon Plough, 1974) is a remarkable tall bearded iris that commands attention with its painterly blend of violet and victoria violet standards, each infused with a luminous white center. The falls echo this vivid palette, featuring a dramatic white ray pattern beneath a light orange beard tipped in mauve, creating a graphic, high-contrast effect that is both memorable and gallery-worthy. Standing at 36" (91 cm) and blooming from early to late season, Exotic Star is a medal-winning, exhibition-grade iris with a pedigree that includes Winners Circle. Honored with an Award of Merit and multiple show accolades, this cultivar is a true landscape centerpiece—perfect for collectors and anyone seeking a bold, conversation-starting bloom for their garden. Available at Amethyst Creek Farm. Attributes: Historic Awards: Award of Merit, Favorite Guest, Honorable Mention
