Daring Deception - Tall Bearded IrisJohnson 2012Honorable Mention 2014Award of Merit 2016runner up for Wister Medal 2018Whistler Medal 2019Dykes Medal 2021Hybridizer's Comment: Daring Deception was a favorite from its maiden bloom and has remained so. It is a great show-off in the garden with its bold contrasting colors including bright red beards. You won't need a name tag to know what it is. From crosses I made while in Australia. Grows to 35" and blooms mid season. Iris rhizomes are best divided and transplanted after the plants finish blooming and have enough time to store nutrition in their roots. July through September is the best time to dig them up in Ohio. All Iris are grown on my farm and shipped from my home, bareroot with foliage and roots attached.BONUS rhizomes are always included at an average rate of 1 for every 5 purchased...my choice. petalswings.com
