Jump Start

Jump Start (Keith Keppel, 2002) is an Intermediate Bearded iris reaching 23" (58 cm) and blooming midseason. This award-winning variety features rich burgundy standards, dark wine style arms edged in golden wheat, and velvety red-black falls that are even deeper and redder than typical shades. The beards are a vivid burnt orange, accented by a firecracker burst in the throat, while the foliage displays a pronounced purple base. Sibling to Ruby Slippers, Jump Start has earned both the Honorable Mention (2004) and Award of Merit (2007) from the American Iris Society. Available at Amethyst Creek Farm.
