I noticed during the bloom season that it was

FRANK ADAMS and the iris I have been growing as
ACCENT since I acquired it through the HIPS
Rhizome Sale in 2000. Does anyone know if these
two cultivars are truly that similar in
appearance?
Hmmm. I don't grow FRANK ADAMS, but believe that
it is a "red" self. I do grow ACCENT, and it has
bright yellow standards and merlot red falls.
Outstanding contrast. I think this is correct, so
I would say that you have a misidentified
"ACCENT."
