"Another seedling we're lining out to look at for possibly 2016. 11-TB-16-23 (parentage is Smoky Shadows X Iconic). Tall, dark, and ruffled. Somewhat similar to Smoky Shadows, but taller, more intense darker standards, and darker falls with cleaner areas near the beard."

"Reblooming now is seedling 11-TB-04-02-RE. Parentage is Drinks At Sunset X (Mastery x Bold Encounter). Large flowers on tall thick stalks."

Love the beards on the white seedling.

"Another TB we're lining out next year to look at for possible 2015 introduction: 10-TB-41-29. Nice 34" stalks with 7 buds and averaging 3 increases. Parentage is Amber Essence X Drinks At Sunset."

Notice that they were looking at this for 2015. Hmmmm.

Here is a TB I missed from before:

10-TB-15-03

They are right to only introduce a few each year working for quality. I love that AB, but afraid that it is half bred not quarter bred & those do better here.

I love the beard on the white seedling. Does it have a tiny bit of blue on the edges of the falls or is that just wishful thinking on my part?

here is my revised "Superbowl" Superstition Iris Gardens 2016 introductions prediction.









sent down to the minor leagues:













oh, did I just mix my sports metaphors?

Not at all.

I want four of the first six picks.

Agree with you on the minor leagues.

I like the last one alot though! I like dark "dirty" Plicata's

This one, Tom.

yes

So, the first number represents the year it was crossed?
I liked this one (absolutely stunning clump):
10.TB.56.35


and this (no number)

It depends on the whim on the hybridizer as to the numbering system. People are different.

a News update for all of you anxious irisaniacs who want to make orders ASAP.

"***UPDATE***--the addition/deletion pdf's for 2016 will be e-mailed this coming Monday, Dec. 14 to those who did a "pre-catalog" order last year and to those who have requested it.

So. this means that Superstition Iris Gardens will be taking orders TOMORROW!!!!!!!!!!
