Famous for the range of blue colors, tall bearded iris' most popular one undoubtedly is sky blue, a color rare in the floral kingdom. Typical of the best sky blues, Nestucca Rapids makes a breathtaking impact. Its crisp standards, style arms and crinkled falls are uniformly azure blue. A soft yellow beard and zonal spot barely makes a ripple in the blue rapids, as shown in our photo. Nestucca Rapids blooms 8 big blossoms on 3 - branched stems. This offspring of Blue Temptation and Silverado well represents the beauty of its namesake, one of Oregon's noted rivers.
