    Tall bearded iris 'My Beloved' was introduced in 2009 by Joe Ghio and is a very fine quality, pure white iris. It has wonderful form, grows and increases well, and produces strong show-quality stalks. It is a great addition to a bed of irises. It is proving to be a good parent for the hybridizer. I would recommend it.
