"Space-age" iris have an extension of some sort at the end of the beard.
Either a 'horn", in which the beard is elongated and reaches off the
surface of the fall; a "spoon", where the elongated beard ends in a
spoon-shaped structure; or a "flounce", where the structure opens up into
something resembing another (smaller) petal.

Hello to All, Golly it's a cold morning today, my gumboots froze as I was
milking in the shed, lost all feeling in the toes,not a good
feeling.....I'm inside with the heater going flat out, looked out the
frosty window to see my iris unguicularis plants are the only fellows
bravely facing the elements. Despite being frozen this morning ,they are
proudly showing off lovely various shades of blue boooms. Aren't they
clever? It's amazing how quickly they come into bloom, as there were no
flowers yesterday.I must remember to go out and dust them with lime before
the slugs chomp all their tasty flowers up.......or there will be nothing
left to cheer me up. You might like a laugh....Went to put on my slippers
that were sitting on the back doormat last night and found a tiny little
mouse had died in the toe of one slipper.....I shreiked and threw the
offending slipper somewhere out into the azalea,lily patch......Now I will
have to go and find it and hope that the body has gone......Cats, bless
them , have a fun
ny sense of humour.....One request; Please, what are Space Age Irises? I'm
very curious.....Cheers for now, Wendy.....wendon@dcsi.net.au
