Ret. Polar Ice
M5688
Iris reticulata ‘Polar Ice’ produces elegant early-spring flowers with crisp white standards rising above icy blue falls, creating a cool and refined display in the late winter garden. The delicate blooms of Iris reticulata ‘Polar Ice’ appear bravely through February winds, bringing precious colour and detail to alpine troughs, rockeries, and sunny borders when little else is in flower.
Best grown in gritty, well-drained soil with dry summer conditions, this compact dwarf iris thrives in bright open positions where its intricate colouring can be admired up close. Each flower offers a quiet yet striking spectacle at the very start of the gardening season.
