Hawaiian Rain

18 years ago

After 14 long years of serious hybridizing and a number of years before that of fooling around just to see if I could actually get takes and grow from seed.

After a lot of encouragement from a bunch of wonderful people in the AIS, this Forum, Region 15, and our local Iris Society, plus garden visitors, I finally made the leap.

This is my first introduction.

Hawaiian Rain '08 R.Squires

2K-35-1 REVOLUTION X 98-4-1 (MESMERIZER x 8BW (HAPPY BRIDE x BUBBLE UP))

Thanks for looking.

Great to see iris bred in zone 10.

Very impressive form. Love the drape of the falls. Looks like a big bloom!
