Iris reticulata ‘Blue Note’

Of all the reticulatas this is simply stunning. The petals are intense in indigo to electric blue.

Surprisingly hardy, these poke their heads through the coldest soils to bring joyful colour and forage for early pollinators in the dead of winter.

Iris generally prefer sharp drainage which will increase their chances of becoming perennial. Plant in pots alongside spring stalwarts like forget-me-knots.
