Tanzanian Tangerine

Tanzanian Tangerine (Brad Kasperek, 1994) is a remarkable tall bearded iris that commands attention with its radiant deep tangerine standards and bold tannish orange falls, dramatically stippled with red wine. This early to midseason bloomer stands at an impressive 38" (97 cm), offering a vibrant, color-forward presence in the garden. Its ruffled, flared form and luminous light orange beards create a painterly, exhibition-grade effect that’s both memorable and visually commanding. With a pedigree from Tiger Honey x Jitterbug, Tanzanian Tangerine is a medal-worthy, award-winning variety, honored with the AIS Honorable Mention in 1997 and Award of Merit in 1999. A true garden showpiece, available from Amethyst Creek Farm. Attributes: Fertile, Historic, Ruffled Awards: Award of Merit, Honorable Mention
