We are pleased to introduce this deer-resistant Hayes Jackson selection of Iris japonica, made in a wooded area at the Wuhan Botanical Garden in Hubei, China in 2001. This stoloniferous groundcover spreads by thin rhizomes just below the mulch surface and makes a 10' wide groundcover-worthy patch in only 3 years. The fans of 20" long sword-like dark green leaves are topped with clusters of white orchid-like flowers in March and early April (NC)...a nice change from the more typical light lavender flowers of this species. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
