Florence Dayton

Florence Dayton (Ron de la Motte, 2000) is a truly memorable tall bearded iris, celebrated for its late to very late bloom and gallery-worthy presence in the garden. Towering at 42" (107 cm), this cultivar features luminous pale cream yellow standards with a deeper midrib, white style arms edged in yellow, and dramatic reddish purple falls outlined in a narrow mauve edge. The vivid tangerine beards and a unique 1-1/2" hairy reddish purple flounce, tipped in mauve, add a sculptural, painterly flair. Lightly sweetly fragrant and honored with an Honorable Mention in 2006, Florence Dayton is a bold, color-forward showpiece—perfect for those seeking a collector-grade, conversation-starting centerpiece for their landscape. Available at Amethyst Creek Farm. Attributes: Edge Trim, Fragrant, Novelty, Space Age Awards: Honorable Mention
