2014 Tall bearded Iris AILE VOLANTE




Heritage Irises are privileged to have been asked to feature some of the 2014 New Varieties created by Richard CayeuxThis Space Age Iris is an absolute  vivid masterpeice. 
European Irises do not always get the exposure to the English speaking media that they justly deserve so I thought 'OK' lets give them a plug.
Don't forget to visit the Cayeux Web Site.
