VERY RARE. A beautiful Iris that thrives in a larger pot in a warm and semi-sunny spot. Place the plants outdoors in summer and let them overwinter in a place at 5-10°C. After several years of growth, the plant will bloom... and that bloom is more than worth all the waiting and care! The intricate colour combination of white tips with brown-yellow tiger-striped and blue-white tiger-striped calyx, together with the delightful fragrance, creates an unforgettable experience!
