Iris Kaempferi 9cm Potted Plant
Iris Kaempferi 9cm Potted Plant
Iris Kaempferi, commonly known as the Japanese Iris, is one of the most spectacular of all irises, celebrated for its breathtaking 5- to 9-inch-wide flowers that unfurl in a vibrant spectrum of purple, pink, white, and blue, often adorned with captivating contrasting colours. These dazzling blooms, often with intricate patterns, grace the garden on 2-3-foot-tall stems, each producing 3 to 15 single, double, or peony-like flowers in the early to mid-summer. While Japanese irises thrive in environments with abundant moisture and rich, organic soil, they are less tolerant of hot, arid climates. These majestic blooms find their ideal home in groups near ponds or even in pots submerged in water, enhancing the serenity of any water garden and leaving a lasting impression with their sheer beauty and grace.
