Hybridizer's Comment: We love this iris and it is a sure show winner, coming from a cross that has given us so many gorgeous blue and off white seedlings. Difficult to make final selections. 'Destined To Dance' is icy white with a slight blue cast and a faint blue line the first day or so then fades away. Hafts are a noticeable greenish yellow and beards are white tipped lemon. Wide, flared and ruffled with exceptional branching. Gives well branched seedlings. |
