Iris odaesanensis (Mt. Odae Iris) slide #60884

Iris odaesanensis (Mt. Odae Iris)

Part Sun to Light ShadeZone: 5-7, at least 8" tall Origin: Korea

My first knowledge of this dwarf iris was during our 1997 Korean expedition when Darrell Probst spotted it growing near Mt. Odae. The small 8" long, acorus-like foliage prefers slightly moist soils, but is amazingly drought-tolerant. I. odaesanensis spreads nicely to create a 2-4' wide grass-like mat of foliage in 5 years (depending on soil moisture) that remains evergreen in milder climates. The patch is topped in early spring with lovely small 2" wide white flowers, each composed of three large and three small petals, the larger ones highlighted with a light brown blotch...a very high cute quotient. Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
