Alliteration - Intermediate Bearded Iris

Alliteration glows with peach-pink and yellow-gold tones, threaded with glittering gilt-gold veins and finished with ruffled, diamond-dusted petals. Large tangerine-orange beards and a pronounced spicy fragrance give this midseason-to-late iris a vibrant presence.
