I'm hoping one of you iris experts can help me ID this. It is peach, blooming right now and is tall, about 3' tall at the bloom. Any ideas? More to follow as I get pictures.
Blooms in our yard...Help me ID these iris?
Any chance you got that from me at the first KY RU? If not, it looks like one I got years ago in a trade. I did pass some out at the RU, just can't remember if you got one or not. Mine were sent to me unamed.
Looks like Beverly Sills to me:

Gardenwife i think your oldie is Perfection -Barr-1880 from England
I think you are right about the ruffling -- I just love this one gardenwife -- the long "dog ears" make it so elegant looking.

Here is the link to "Vanity":

My first thought was 'Beverly Sills' also, but I will yield to the experts! 'Bev' might be more ruffly as you say, and also more of a flamingo color.
This girl is definitely pale peach. So far, 'Vanity' looks closest to it, I think. Thanks for the ID of the Perfection-Barr-1880. Any ideas on that rust/brown one? You guys are tops! :)
I think your red brown iris is UNFORGETTABLE FIRE 1991{Schrener,s
Oh, thanks, a name for my oldie ~'Perfection-Barr'~
I gave away a ton of these that were suffering against a wooden fence in our summertime heat. Kept enough to have a plenty pretty soon.
Badseed, that's just a very pretty lady who maybe danced too much. She would be perfect back with my Pleasure rose. Could trade an un-named regal height big bloomed white.
She's gorgeous, Chele! Mine's not as deep a peach.
