Fancy Tales, Ring Around Rosie, Bewilderbeast, Stage Lights, Tomorrow's
Child, and Crystal Dreams are all very different patterns involving three or
more colors (assuming you include white as a color). Many similar (or also
entirely different) three-color iris are available. Nobody worth ordering
from has overnight delivery; the rhizomes are usually dug to order over a
1-2 month period (July - September), most often in the order received.
Dried out stuff may be available from generic bulb vendors; most of us have
made that mistake exactly once. Try Schreiners: a good online color
catalog and starting point for beginners.

or Cooley's:

Note that both are 'half-price" for ~ $50 purchase. Do not waste money
paying double! Cooleys has some collections for less, but I always prefer
to pick what I like.
Good luck!
