Iris 'That's All Folks'
That's All Folks Iris
Iris 'That's All Folks' is a tall bearded iris with exceptionally large, ruffled flowers that bloom in midseason. Brilliant golden-yellow standards rise above broad white falls washed with gold near the shoulders and surrounded by wide golden-yellow margins. Fine gold veining blends the white centers into the warmer outer coloring, while matching gold beards complete the luminous two-tone effect. Upright, sword-shaped green foliage provides a clean backdrop for the tall flowering stems.

Design tip
Allow 'That's All Folks' to rise above lower plants rather than surrounding it with flowers of similar height. Its white fall centers provide enough separation to keep the abundant gold from feeling heavy, making repeated clumps effective for carrying warm color through a border.
