Dedicated - Dwarf Bearded Iris

Dedicated opens the dwarf iris season in gentle pale yellow, with fine green-gold lines tracing the standards and a bold green-gold spot shading the white falls. Darker olive veining, orange-and-white beards and a slight sweet fragrance add delicate detail to this Honorable Mention winner.
