The softly ruffled edges of its broad, white petals bear a gorgeous lavender-violet hue. Displays heavily veined hafts and pale blue-white beards. Hemstitched dependably reblooms to provide its unique, attention-getting colouration for much of the growing season. Adds elegance to the mid-border and to fresh-cut bouquets. Like most bearded irises, it's quite hardy and resistant to drought, disease, and insects.
