Mammoth Orange

Mammoth Orange (Michael Sutton, 2016) is a commanding tall bearded iris that delivers a memorable garden presence with its bold, radiant color play and sculptural ruffles. Towering at 38" (97 cm), this midseason to very late bloomer features luminous orange-buff standards with a pink flush at the midribs, complemented by orange-buff style arms. The falls are crisp white, edged with a vivid orange-buff band that widens dramatically at the petal’s base, while vibrant orange beards add a final pop of color. Noteworthy for its pronounced spicy fragrance and reblooming performance in USDA Zones 8 and 9 (CA field), Mammoth Orange is a show garden quality, exhibition-grade iris with a pedigree from ‘Orange Juice’ x ‘Orangelo’. Honored with an AIS Honorable Mention in 2019, this cultivar is a true landscape centerpiece and a collector’s highlight.
