Poppa John

Poppa John (Tom Burseen, 1999) is a memorable Tall Bearded iris that brings a gallery-worthy presence to any garden. Reaching 36" (91 cm), this midseason bloomer features luminous golden yellow standards above rich brownish gold falls, with hafts and edges deepening to a dramatic, darker tone. The large, ruffled blooms are further distinguished by dark purplish brown spoons lavishly adorned with golden hairs or tatters, creating a painterly and sculptural effect. Accented by dark gold beards and a musky fragrance, Poppa John is a field-stopping, exhibition-grade variety with undeniable showpiece appeal. Hybridized from Sunny Bubbles x Green Streak.
