Tall Bearded Iris (Iris germanica (Orris))

Another of my own, a child of Sultans Palace. I call it Chameleon, for my own benefit.

I like this colour too. Could I grow them in a terracotta pot with good drainage in a sunny position?

The pot would have to be enormous, Linda.

Simbad, yes you have this one, it is a tall one. It's ginger sibling in the front is quite short but the one in the back is as tall as this. Funny look at some buds, think, will be open tomorrow, no they take ages but others open almost overnight.
