Article Abstract:

Sacks and Schafer have developed and released more than 60 Siberian iris hybrids that venture into exciting new realms of color for this group of plants. Sacks and Schafer trace their infatuation with Siberian irises to an encounter with Bee Warburton, a well-known hybridizer of bearded and Siberian irises that eventually became their mentor.
