Product Description
Montmartre Bearded Iris (Keith Keppel, R. 2007)
The Montmartre Bearded Iris, hybridized by Keith Keppel in 2007, stands at a graceful 33 inches tall. This early to midseason bloomer showcases an exquisite array of colors and textures, making it a true masterpiece in the garden.
The standards present a greyed red-purple hue, delicately edged with a ¼-inch straw yellow border. The style arms transition from straw to reed yellow, with a red-purple flush along the midrib. The falls are a velvety dark red-purple, richer and brighter than raisin purple, and are framed by a narrow oyster white edge. The inner haft displays a lemon yellow tone, which transitions to white around the chrome yellow beards. The beard tips are accented with white and lemon, adding a final touch of elegance.
Montmartre has received numerous accolades, including the Honorable Mention in 2010, the Award of Merit in 2012, the prestigious Wister Medal in 2014, and the highest honor for irises, the American Dykes Medal in 2017. This exceptional iris is a must-have for any serious collector or admirer of floral beauty.
