Vavoom is a bitone standard dwarf bearded iris that rea
lly stands out from the crowd. It blooms late for a dwarf. It has light yellow standards with a green tinge, bright canary yellow falls and a butter yellow beard. The standards are ruffled while the falls are smooth. It grows to about 14 inches for me and us a vigorous grower.

They don’t come any cuter than Standard Dwarf Bearded (SDB) Iris “Boo”. She doesn’t get any taller than 12 inches. An amoena, which means that the standards are white and the falls are colored. In this case there is a crescent shaped purple spot on the falls with detailed veining and penciling near the beards, which are yellow. This cutie won the award of merit in 1976. They are early bloomers and you may want to get down close to smell the sweet fragrance.

I just love the color of this historic Standard Dwarf Bearded (SDB) Iris. It’s a true sky blue, the ruffled falls and standards are the same color but there is noticeable darker blue veining throughout and a yellow beard for accent. This Iris pumila is about 12 inches tall and is great for the rock garden or front of the border.

This little darling has wisteria blue standards and straw colored falls. Brilliant blue beards complete the package. Others say that it is supposed to be 8” but it is 6” tops here in Wisconsin. I thought it was a MDB when I got it. A vigorous grower it won the American Iris Society Award of Merit in 1996.

This standard dwarf bearded (SDB) iris is very difficult to describe…you really need to look at the picture or better yet see it in person. It is lavender, cream and tan or straw colored all kind of blended together with very dark purple shooting up from the base. The sky blue beards top it off with a stunning yet calming result. At 12 plus inches, she is tall for a SDB. With a wide flat form, the standards form a ball, while the falls don’t fall, they are held straight out to the side.
