Firestorm

Firestorm (Marky Smith, 1992) is a remarkable SDB iris introduced by Aitken’s Salmon Creek in 1994, celebrated for its bold, painterly color contrast and reblooming performance. This early-blooming, 13.5" (35 cm) standout features nearly solid burgundy standards that fade to a buff-washed center with a dramatic burgundy midrib. The falls are a luminous aureolin yellow, heavily lined and washed with rich port wine, intensifying to a solid port wine rim, and finished with old gold beards. Ruffled and full of presence, Firestorm is a medal-worthy, garden-showpiece iris with a proven rebloom in CA and TX (USDA Zones 7, 8). Honored with an Award of Merit and Honorable Mention, this cultivar is a collector-grade addition for any iris enthusiast seeking a vivid, conversation-starting centerpiece.
