Yellow iris?

I have lots of iris, at least by my standards, but I don't have a really good bright yellow iris. I do have a very old fashioned one that blooms nicely every year, but I would like a modern iris with wider beards and a nice egg-yolk yellow color. I would also like to have one that is a good grower so I won't have to worry about it blooming out or failing to increase.
I have Miami Beach which has not yet bloomed for me, but I would really like to know if any of you can name an egg yolk yellow iris that I can plant and that will grow really well.
I have heard numerous members claim that there are too many yellows, but the truth is that I don't have any modern yellows. Help me figure out what to order. It should be modern but it doesn't have to be all that modern.
I am eager to see what everyone's favorite yellow is.

Hi pajaritomt! I like really bright yellows, and Trumpet Call is a great multiplier for me. The rhizomes get very large here.

My second favorite yellow has got to be Tuscan Villa, it also multiplies fast here and is very bright and modern

Love the Sun is a bright yellow.

Devine Light is a pretty yellow.

Love Tour de France.

Tntigger, really love Tuscan Villa!

Thanks! It really surprised me on how fast it grows here

It does well here in OR as well.

i really like Harvest of memories, it's a reliable rebloomer for me in zone 7, this picture was taken in december 2008:

my second favorite is Here comes the Sun:

Oh, lots of great suggestions here folks! They are just what I was looking for. They would really set of my blues and intense purples. Thanks for your suggestions. Now I have a list to look for.

Sarah's Laughter I have Miami Beach (K Keppel) and Amarillo Frills that are very bright!! I came in second at our local show with Am Frills, my stems were to long!!LOL

I have Miami Beach, but it hasn't bloomed yet. I was wondering how Amarillo Frills performed. It is very attractive. Were your stems too long because it was growing in shade? I didn't realize stems could be too long. But I have a lot to learn about judging.

In Judging for a show, everything MUST be in perfect propotion. We had a JI that was on the floor and only people over 5'5" could see the blossom, so it did not place and it was breathtaking (forgot the name)

pajaritomt,
According to a pic posted by 1913cat on the thread...Winter Boredom #5 ..I'd say Throb looks like one you would be interested in. I know I am. Maybe 1913cat will respond back with the growth info .

And Mshadow,
I just got Tour de-France in 08....WOW ! Can't wait to see it bloom

Here is THROB, it is an excellent grower here with HUGE blooms

I have Throb! It has never bloomed because the first place I planted it was way too shady. So I moved it to a better place and hope it will bloom this year. It spent last year recovering from its awful location the first two years. I agree, its pictures are beautiful!

Well endowed is awesome huge flowers, grows well for me and it is a re-bloomer....

here is another shot....

ummm.... Pretty. I have a feeling I will end up with yellow iris interspersed throughout my garden!

Nicky, where did you find Sarah's Laughter. Must have that for my dd Sarah! *Sigh* didn't need a longer list, lol!
