Sea Power

Sea Power Bearded Iris (Keppel, Keith '99)

The Sea Power Bearded Iris, hybridized by Keith Keppel in 1999, stands tall at 38 inches and features a mesmerizing midseason bloom that captures the essence of the ocean. Its incredibly surging bubble ruffling and deep cornflower blue color evoke vivid imagery of an angry sea responding to Neptune's command, making it a striking focal point in any garden.

Notably, Sea Power boasts one of the most lavishly ruffled flower forms of any blue iris known, further enhanced by its pronounced sweet fragrance, adding an aromatic dimension to its visual appeal.

With a track record of excellence, Sea Power has garnered several prestigious awards: an Honorable Mention in 2001, the Award of Merit in 2003, the Wister Medal in 2005, and the Dykes Medal in 2006, solidifying its status as a must-have for iris enthusiasts.
