This unusual and stunning new Siberian iris has lavender-blue stigma flaps, with violet purple and gold standards and falls that together create a very exotic looking flower. Held above narrow strap-like foliage, this vigorous hardy clump-forming iris will look fabulous planted in the border, or naturalising alongside a pond. - Garden care: Plant in soil that has been improved with well-rotted manure or garden compost and do not allow to dry out, particularly as the plant is getting established. If planted in a container, it will need dividing and repotting every couple of years in spring.
- Harmful if eaten
