Danger Ahead (Howard Dash, 2021) is a remarkable tall bearded iris that commands attention with its bold, color-forward presence. Reaching 35″ (89 cm) and blooming midseason, this hybrid (Belle Fille X Fire Danger) features rich red-brown standards edged in gold, matching style arms, and dramatic red-brown falls highlighted by a white and pale yellow zone beneath the orange beard, accented with red-brown veining and a faint pale gold rim. A slight fragrance adds to its appeal. Introduced by Picacho Mountain in 2022, Danger Ahead is a standout, garden-showpiece iris with pedigree-worthy impact and memorable, painterly coloration.Attributes: Edge Trim, Fragrant, VeiningAwards: Honorable Mention
