Iris hollandica 'Purple Sensation'
NEW in 2025
This variety has been in one of our borders for the past three years, with the display getting better with every flowering.

Iris reticulata 'Polar Ice'

Iris reticulata 'Purple Hill'
This splendid recent introduction has greater robustness and vigour than some older reticulata varieties. We have been growing its companion variety 'Blue Hill' for a couple of years now and have only neglected to stock 'Purple Hill' due to its similarity to the very popular Iris 'George'. The sole grower of 'George' has experienced total crop failure last season, so we are now offering 'Purple Hill'...
Iris reticulata 'Rhapsody'
The good-sized flowers are violet-purple, with yellow blotch to the falls, making a strong impact.
