Moonglade - Intermediate Bearded Iris

Moonglade is a coolly luminous and lightly fragrant intermediate bearded iris with a silvery, nocturnal beauty that shimmers like moonlight on water — lightly ruffled slate-purple standards blended with greyed mauve and flushed pale lemon at the base frame hortensia-to-prune-purple falls paling to a small lavender edge, with a white spot glowing at the heart like a reflected moon, while white beards tipped chrome yellow in the throat add a warm, quiet radiance. A Keppel variety of serene, otherworldly elegance.
