Iris unguicularis (Winter Blooming Algerian Iris)

Sun to Part SunZone: 7-9 18" tall Origin: Turkey, Caucasus

(syn: I. stylosa) The rarely available, winter-blooming Algerian iris is one of our favorites for its ability to flower when few others dare. The narrow green leaves, to only 18" tall, make a dense deer-resistant clump to 18" wide. Starting in October-November (weather permitting), the clumps begin to flower with 2" very fragrant, light lavender-purple flowers...continuing through April (temporarily ceasing when the temperature drops below 15 degrees F). I. unguicularis prefers a dry and well-drained location. Iris unguicularis was also named by the Royal Horticultural Society as one of the top 200 plants of the last 200 years! Pot size: 24 fl. oz (709.77 ml)
