Modern Drama

Modern Drama (Frederick Kerr, 2011) is a commanding tall bearded iris that lives up to its name with a bold, gallery-worthy presence in the garden. Reaching 38" (97 cm) and blooming midseason, this cultivar features luminous orange standards and style arms (RHS 24C) that rise above apricot falls (24D), each fall edged in a dramatic 1/2" brick red (34D) band and veined with deeper tones for a painterly effect. The beards glow in a vivid nasturtium red (32B), while a slight sweet fragrance adds to its refined appeal. With its pedigree from New Day Dawning and select seedlings, Modern Drama is a remarkable, color-forward showpiece—perfect for collectors and anyone seeking a landscape centerpiece with undeniable stage presence. Available at Amethyst Creek Farm. Attributes: Edge Trim, Fragrant, Veining
