A delicate iris with numerous small flowers that have mid blue-violet standards and white-blue veined falls. The flowers are produced in late spring and early summer above low narrow foliage. A beautiful Siberian iris that is perfect for providing vertical interest for a sunny waterside planting with well-drained fertile soil.

• Garden care: Plant shallowly with the upper part of the rhizome sitting on the surface of the soil incorporating a low nitrogen fertiliser in the planting hole. After planting remove the upper-most third of the leaves to minimise the incidence of wind-rock. In exposed areas stake with bamboo canes in early spring.
