Notes

'White Beauty' iris (Iris 'White Beauty') 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. The ivory standards have a lilac gloss, and the falls carry a deep yellow blotch. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. Blooms appear in spring and again in summer.

Pairs well with Blue wild indigo, Feather reed grass, and Japanese forest grass.
