Bashful Look

BASHFUL LOOK Thomas Johnson USA 2021 Flowering Mid Season 36”

Tall Bearded Iris 

Imported by Riversdale Irises the year it was introduced at Mid-America Garden in the USA and after spending required time in quarantine, minimum of 3 months, it arrived at our property in 2022, it is important that imported varieties are given the appropriate time to acclimatise to being in the southern hemisphere, and also recover from the fumigation process that is a requirement for plant material entering Australia.

This variety has medium lavender pink standards and falls are darker with a lighter edge, the beards are a frosted lavender, tipped cream. We particularly love how the colour on this variety fades to a beautiful pink. Was awarded an Honourable Mention in 2023.  This variety has show stems, wonderful substance and a slight fragrance. Just Stunning! We love it!

Iris flowering season commences in early October  and if weather conditions are ideal can continue well into November. Orders will not be dispatched until after flowering, it is important the rhizome is given time to put on growth after flowering so we aim to dig your order early to mid December, weather permitting. Our rhizomes are trimmed washed, sanitised and left a day or two to dry, this makes your buying experience a positive one.   If you can wait the ideal time for planting is February - April.  

 If you have a specific time that you wish to receive your order, please sent a text message with you invoice number through to 0413188375 with your request. 

Please Note:
