Peppered Leopard

Peppered Leopard (Brad Kasperek, 2009) is a truly remarkable Intermediate Bearded iris, celebrated for its bold, painterly patterning and dynamic color play. Reaching 20" (51 cm) in height and blooming midseason, this cultivar commands attention with golden-yellow tan standards and style arms, dramatically streaked with muted red-purple. The falls intensify the effect, showcasing deeper golden-yellow tan backgrounds splashed and streaked with rich, darker red-purple, all accented by luminous lemon-yellow beards. Lightly ruffled petals and a slight fragrance add to its garden-showpiece appeal. With its graphic, broken color and pedigree-worthy lineage, Peppered Leopard is a conversation-starting centerpiece for any iris collection. Available at Amethyst Creek Farm. Attributes: Fertile, Fragrant, Ruffled
