Description
New to our catalogue for 2025
A beautiful pure white intermediate bearded Iris with a yellow beard tipped with white.
Flowering in early May these can sporadically flower through summer. Ideally grown in a sunny free draining soil with rhizomes visible on surface. Grown in an alpine rock garden, border or container this plant benefits from rhizome cutting/slicing to continue good flowering. To do this we recommend using a clean knife to cut up rhizomes into smaller segments every other year.

Stocky foliage, but very small rhizome and poor root system. I’m sure it will recover in time.
