Iris versicolor is a water-loving iris with blue-purple flowers that have attractive veining. It' s ideal for planting around the edge of a pond or in a bog garden and is popular with pollinators.
Plant at the edge of a sunny pond or bog garden and remove dead flower heads once the display is over. Cut back the foliage in autumn and divide congested rhizomes every three years.
