Iris Dwarf Crested

Common Name: Iris

Botanical Name: Iris cristata

Variety: Dwarf Crested

Blossom Color: Blue

Bloom Time: Apr-May

Zone: 4 to 8

Exposure: Shade or Part Shade

Mature Height: 6-10"

Notes: Consider adding this native dwarf iris to your shade offerings; it blooms in time for spring sales and has great impulse appeal. Light to bright periwinkle blue flowers bloom on short stems. This plant spreads quickly by rhizomes to form a groundcover in moist woodland areas but is drought tolerant once established.
