Gilt-Edged Bond

Gilt-Edged Bond (Gerald Richardson, 2004) is a radiant tall bearded iris that commands attention in any garden setting. Reaching 36" (91 cm) and blooming early to midseason, this cultivar features painterly standards in pale lavender-cream, each edged with a luminous metallic gold that glows in the sunlight. The falls are a faded violet, elegantly rimmed with a narrow band of metallic gold, while the beards shine in bright yellow. Ruffled and diamond-dusted petals add a luxe, opalescent finish, and a slight fragrance enhances its appeal. With its gallery-worthy color contrast and refined presence, Gilt-Edged Bond is a collector-grade showpiece for the discerning gardener. Available at Amethyst Creek Farm. Attributes: Edge Trim, Fragrant, Ruffled
