Linda,
I like the sound of having a bright pink
saturation/or starburst around the beard. One of my personal mottos
is: If you can dream it, you're half way there!

I wish! I dreamt this one up a couple of years ago as
an eventual probably never to be attained goal, & it was fun &
interesting trying to put my mental image into digital form. I did
another one with more blue in the standards that I think I like
better.
There's something unrealistic looking about that dark pink
starburst, but I can't quite figure out what it is - maybe no irises I've
seen have that much color saturation of plastid pigments around the
beard. Not to mention that much pink color saturation on the
rims!
Joe Ghio has introduced a few with a "pink starburst' around the
beard. And some triple rims on falls are starting to show up, tho colors
on most of them aren't anywhere near as dark as my 'make believe'
iris.
Neil has already been trying to think of what to cross to get
there <g>
