Pause

Pause (Barry Blyth, 2001) is a captivating SDB iris that commands attention with its painterly blend of mushroom pink standards and style arms, contrasted by luminous falls in light violet deepening to rose violet at the hafts, and a bold blue-violet chevron below the beard. The tangerine beards, tipped in blue, add a vivid pop of color, while the pronounced sweet fragrance elevates its garden appeal. This remarkable, reblooming variety (reported in AZ, CA, MO, MD; USDA Zones 6, 7b, 8a, 9) is a true garden showpiece—memorable for both its dynamic color play and its pedigree, being a cross of ‘Being Busy’ and ‘Lore’. A must-have for collectors seeking a field-stopping, exhibition-grade iris with undeniable presence. Attributes: Fragrant, Rebloomer Rebloomer This cultivar is a known rebloomer.
