Blue Water Iris ‘Versicolor’

*Please note - All aquatic plants ship bare - root.
The pointed, aubergine-tinged leaves, eventually changing to green as the weather warms, are reason enough to love this Iris. In late spring and early summer, the show turns to the blue-violet blooms borne upon handsome dark stems.
