Missouri Mist (O. David Niswonger, 1999) is a remarkable tall bearded iris that commands attention with its dramatic 38″ stems and midseason bloom. This hybridizer’s dream features dark blue standards and style arms, contrasted by pallid blue falls and vivid orange tangerine beards, with a luminous white base and end. Its bold, color-forward design and pedigree—Honky Tonk Blues x Upside Down—make it a standout addition to any garden, perfect for collectors and those seeking a show garden quality centerpiece. Missouri Mist is available at Amethyst Creek Farm.
