White Dwarf Crested Iris
Iris cristata ‘Alba’
Mix up your iris collection with this adorable, white-flowering beauty. Dwarf Crested Iris is low-growing and shade-loving – not to mention a charming little ground cover. While flowers are typically violet-blue, ‘Alba’ features bright white flowers with gold crests. Even when the flowers fade after spring, the sword-like foliage is bright and interesting. Alone or mixed with the violet-flowering form, this iris is a worthy addition to any garden.
