Bred by the esteemed Schreiner family and introduced in 2022, Sunrise Splendor is a captivating Tall Bearded Iris that brings a symphony of color to the garden. Its ruffled standards (upright petals) are pure white, gracefully edged with a pencil-thin gold rim, while the falls (downward petals) showcase a white ground adorned with gold-embossed shoulders and a soul-stirring purple that flows outward from the bright orange beard. A wider amber border frames the falls, adding depth and complexity to the bloom.
