Iris 'Valentine'
Dutch iris bulbs
Slender upright stems are topped with exquisite purple-blue flowers, each with a contrasting yellow splash. Sought after by florists, they will last well after being cut for the vase, but in the border, they offer invaluable colour, which bridges the gap between spring and summer.
