High Class

High Class (Paul Black, 2002) is a gallery-worthy Tall Bearded Iris that radiates sophistication and visual drama. Reaching 38" (97 cm), this midseason to late bloomer is defined by its luminous pale blue standards edged with a crystalline rim and accented by pale blue style arms and a violet midrib. The falls are a deep, velvety purple, bordered by a narrow band of medium violet and enhanced with bold white veining and a distinctive dart at the end of the beard. The beards themselves transition from light violet at the tip to gold and orange-gold in the throat, creating a luxe, boutique-caliber effect. High Class is not only visually captivating but also boasts a pronounced sweet fragrance and proven fertility. With its refined edge trim, dramatic veining, and award-winning pedigree—including an Honorable Mention from the AIS and third place at the Moscow International TB Iris Competition—High Class is a collector-grade showpiece for any discerning garden. Available at Amethyst Creek Farm. Attributes: Edge Trim, Fertile, Fragrant, Veining Awards: Honorable Mention
