Shaft Of Gold

Shaft Of Gold (Neva Sexton, 1976) is a remarkable tall bearded iris that commands attention with its radiant, antique gold standards and crisp white falls edged in a bold gold border. Vivid gold plicata markings and a luminous gold beard add to its painterly, high-contrast appeal. Standing at 36" (91 cm) and blooming midseason, this cultivar is a true garden showpiece—memorable for its pedigree (Radiant Apogee x green plicata seedling) and honored with an AIS Honorable Mention in 1978. Shaft Of Gold is a collector-grade iris, perfect for those seeking a dramatic, field-stopping presence in their landscape. Hybridized by Neva Sexton and introduced in 1976.
