Secret Santa

Secret Santa (Donald Spoon, 2007) is a memorable Tall Bearded iris that brings a gallery-worthy presence to any garden. Reaching 35" (89 cm), this midseason to late bloomer features refined light lavender-pink standards with a deeper midline and delicate veining, complemented by matching style arms and a lavender midrib. The falls are a rich plum violet (RHS 64A), edged in light lavender-pink and highlighted by a dramatic white starburst in the upper third, all bordered by a dark violet hairline. The beards transition from white, tipped in light tangerine, to a deeper tangerine in the throat, adding a vibrant pop of color. With its ruffled form and pronounced sweet fragrance, Secret Santa is a collector-grade, showpiece iris bred from Fancy Woman x seedling 97-174A. Available from Amethyst Creek Farm.
