Mid mallow-purple, silvery crystalline rim standards accents the vibrant coral, white and blue beards. Super vigorous plants produce massive clumps packed with stalks and bloom. Heavily ruffled with a slight musky fragrance. This is a favorite among garden visitors.

Iris rhizomes are best divided and transplanted after the plants finish blooming and have enough time to store nutrition in their roots. July through September is the best time to dig them up in Ohio. All Iris are grown on my farm and shipped from my home, bareroot with foliage and roots attached. BONUS rhizomes are always included at an average rate of 1 for every 5 purchased...my choice. Bonniepetalswings.com
