Iris sibirica 'Snow Queen'

Iris, Siberian

'Snow Queen' is aptly named as it boasts outstanding sparkling white blooms in early spring. The linear, almost grass-like, green foliage remains fresh and attractive throughout the growing season. As with many other varieties of Siberian Iris, Snow Queen prefers moist or boggy conditions, but will grow in just about any soil type including poor, dry soil because its thick roots penetrate the soil deeply. These vigorous perennials look especially impressive planted in masses or as upright accents at the edge of water gardens and pools.
