From Tempo Two catalog, 2014: DIAMOND BROKER (Blyth 2014 Aust) EM 36”. One of the loveliest Iris we have in the garden, no doubt due to its parent Magical. It has proven for us to be a stunning parent. The standards are light lemon cream, becoming lighter towards the ¼” frilly lemon edge. Style crests show well and are frilly lemon yellow. Falls are creamy white with a ¼” lemon cream edge, mostly at the fall bottom. Hafts are lemon yellow and the golden beards set the flower off. Abundant buds and superb show stems. Pedigree has a bit of everything, Plicata, amoena and exquisite pastels. So far, not a lot of seedlings have flowered from it but they will over the coming years and we expect some winners.
