This native, evergreen, creeping Iris has all year round interest with its stiff, fan-like leaves varying in colour from soft creamy greens to bright oranges. Colder conditions enhance the foliage colour with white iris-like flowers appearing in late spring. Its clumping habit looks spectacular as an under planting in gardens where structure and texture is desired. Try planting as a border for bold area definition with river stones or under trees amongst other structured plants like Astelias, Cordylines and grasses. It is suitable for either moist or dry areas preferring sunny situations. This plant is approximately eighteen months old when it reaches the garden centre and you can expect it to double in size over the next year growing to a height of 0.6 metres by 0.6 metres.
