Iris ensata ‘Stippled Ripples’


Japanese Iris

USDA Zone: 4-9

Plant number: 1.288.730


Japanese Iris have been treasured in Japan for centuries, with many excellent hybrids selected over time. They require neutral to acidic soil, and lots of moisture until blooming time is over. Plants will be happy at the waterside, and can even be grown in pots sitting in water. This selection has large white flowers with a solid purple edge and purple blotches near the edges. Great for cutting. Performs best if divided every 3 to 4 years in late summer. Fertilize in spring and again just after flowering is over. CAUTION: Harmful if eaten.
