Greenback Kid

Greenback Kid (Donald Spoon, 2008) is a memorable SDB iris that brings a luminous, color-forward presence to the early midseason garden, with the added bonus of reliable rebloom. Standing at 13" (33 cm), this cultivar features light green standards and falls (near yellow-green, RHS 151B) highlighted by a deeper green spot and veining, creating a painterly, graphic effect. The refined lavender blue style arms deepen at the crest and across the stigmatic lip, edged delicately in pink for a touch of sophistication. Vivid lavender blue beards, tipped in light mustard and transitioning to richer mustard tones toward the throat, provide a bold, dynamic focal point. Flared and slightly ruffled blooms lend a sculptural, exhibition-grade quality. Bred from Wise Willow x Senorita Frog and introduced by Winterberry in 2009, Greenback Kid is noted for its reblooming performance in Virginia (USDA Zone 6 field). A standout choice for collectors and garden enthusiasts seeking a showpiece with pedigree-worthy color and dynamic visual appeal. Available at Amethyst Creek Farm.
