Reds and yellows combine to make particularly richly colored flower displays. Here's a sampling of a few PCI hybrids in this group. The typical pattern is red to dark red falls and yellow to orange standards and style arms. In some hybrids, this combination shows up on all flower parts.
PCI 'Wildest Imagining' |
PCI 'Eye Catching' |
Then darken the falls, and standards and style arms with intensely colored flowers including:
PCI 'Rancho Coralitos' |
PCI 'San Justo' |
PCI 'Wino' has particularly intense yellows |
BEAUTIFUL, Kathleen! Thank you.
ReplyDeleteJust wondering what does PCI stand for?
DeletePCI = Pacific Coast Iris. Pacifica Iris is also used as name for this group of Iris. Both terms are geographically more accurate than the traditional taxonomic name of Californicae. I try to use both names regularly in my articles. PCN is another term used by some, which means Pacific Coast Native Iris.
