Iris

Renowned for producing a stunning array of iris flowers in a spectrum of vibrant hues, Louisiana irises are a gardener's delight. These rhizomatous perennials, with their sword-shaped grey-green leaves, add elegance to various water features, including ponds, streams, and lakes, as well as bog gardens and perennial borders. Thriving in full sun and moist conditions, they burst into bloom in spring, showcasing a mesmerizing palette of colours ranging from whites, creams, and yellows to bronzes, pinks, purples, and blues. Their easy-going nature and ability to flourish in wetter areas make them a versatile and eye-catching addition to any garden landscape.

Please note that the Iris received will be selected at random from one of the colours in the collage above.
