Bearded Iris - potted...in bud. Blue and white
The Bearded Iris season is just starting.
This potted bearded iris has a bud just coming out. It is a median iris with blue and white ruffled blooms.
Name: Frothing Slosh
A hardy reliable little iris.
Bearded Irises are not fussy with soil type and do like the sun. They are perennials coming up every year, and dying down a bit in the winter. They don't mind being frosted and unusually like their rhizomes sitting on top of the soil where they can sunbath.
This iris was potted up last season, is Wairarapa acclimatized and could slip out of its pot into the garden very easily.
The flowers are from the parent plant. The plant in the pot, in bud, is the one for sale.
Thanks for looking.
Pickup is in Kuripuni.

Poll: Should all neighbours have to contribute to improvements?
An Auckland court has ruled a woman doesn’t have to contribute towards the cost of fixing a driveway she shares with 10 neighbours.
When thinking about fences, driveways or tree felling, for example, do you think all neighbours should have to pay if the improvements directly benefit them?
