Variegated Yellow Flag Iris

There is something so serene about groups of flowering perennials planted at the edge of a sunny pond, creek or water feature. Variegated Yellow Flag Iris is the perfect choice for bringing that dream to life. This cheerful iris creates a three season display that really pops. From spring to summer, warm yellow blooms brighten the site with color and style. The foliage emerges a pale butter yellow hue and remains for several weeks, the color deepening as the leaves mature. Can be planted in water up to 5" deep. For best presentation, plant in groups.
