This is a double flowered Siberian iris. The neat, strap-like green foliage appears in early spring, whilst the flower buds develop, opening in May and flowering until early July. The striking double flowers with their blue-violet petals have a tendency to curl a little. The falls are splashed with cream and have paler violet centres. A robust hardy perennial, it will thrive in both marshy and dry soils, but grows best in a soil that does not dry out in early summer. Organically grown in peat free compost.
