12 Popular Medalists Iris Collection
The Dykes Medal is the highest honor awarded to a registered Iris. Only one Iris can win this top award each year. The winning Iris is selected from those that have also won both the Award of Merit, and the top award in their own class. We offer here in one stunning collection these twelve Dykes Memorial Medal winners.
NOTE: 'Drama Queen' and 'Sea Power' are out of stock. We will substitute each of these with a variety of similar color, and equal to or greater in value.
