Worth growing for its beautiful foliage alone. Fans of broad-bladed grey leaves make a good accent all summer and well into autumn. Scented flowers with silk-textured crinkly petals in pale lavender-blue are a bonus in late spring to early summer. Harmful if eaten.
Iris pallida subsp. pallida
Orris root, bearded iris
