Fancy Dress

Fancy Dress (Keith Keppel, 1997) is a captivating tall bearded iris that commands attention with its painterly blend of violet standards, paler veining, and dramatic darker violet falls edged in lighter tones. A luminous white area surrounds the beard, which is tipped in orange for a vivid, color-forward accent. Ruffled petals and a slight sweet fragrance add to its refined, exhibition-grade appeal. This early-blooming, reblooming variety (reported in California, USDA Zone 9) stands at 34" and is a standout choice for collectors and garden enthusiasts seeking a memorable, pedigree-worthy showpiece.
