Iris cristata-Dwarf Crested Iris

Dwarf Crested Iris is a petite but showy native that captivates in the spring with large violet to lavender blooms that boast yellow and white centers on their lower petals. These blooms make a significant visual impact and attract pollinators such as bees and butterflies. Its pale-green, erect and gracefully arching leaves form a neat, dense clump that will slowly spread via rhizomes. Perfect for garden edges or mixed with other low-growing plants so that it will not be obscured by taller neighbors.  Sun: Full, Partial, Shade Soil: Medium-Wet, Medium, Medium-Dry Bloom Time: May Color: Purple Height: 8 in
