Searing Embers

Searing Embers (Thomas Johnson, 2020) is a remarkable SDB iris that commands attention with its bold, color-forward presence. Reaching 12" (30 cm) and blooming late in the season, this garden-showpiece features luminous golden yellow to mustard standards and matching style arms, contrasted by rich mahogany falls edged with a mustard-yellow band. The beards glow in saturated burnt orange, adding a vivid, painterly touch. Searing Embers is further distinguished by its musky fragrance, making it both a visual and sensory standout. Honored with an AIS Honorable Mention in 2022, this pedigree-worthy iris is a dynamic addition to any landscape or collector’s bed. Available at Amethyst Creek Farm.
