A magnificent, robust Iris, ‘King of the Blues’ is a handsome, tall English Iris which blooms during June and July.

Strong stems reach 50-60cm and hold up the lush, dark blue flowers which stand up to wind and rain with ease, despite their fragile looks.

A burst of white flecks mark the velvety petals, surrounding a bright yellow tongue.

Plant this stately Iris in groups for a dramatic midsummer display of moody blues.

Thrives in a well-drained, sunny spot where the bulbs will naturalise.

Iris ‘King of the Blues’ makes an excellent cut flower. Cut when the buds just show some colour for a long-lasting display.
