Notes

'Valderrama' iris (Iris 'Valderrama') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil. It stands about 27 inches tall and bears white flowers in early to late spring and again in early to late summer. John Nijssen Bloembollen bred it. Deer and rabbits rarely make it their first choice.

Pairs well with Feather reed grass, Japanese forest grass, and Bridal wreath spiraea.
