Iris x hollandica Apollo
This is from the range of Xiphium Irises (Spanish Iris) created in the Netherlands in 1891. The florists use them to good effect in the late spring and summer during their season. But why limit yourself to cut flower when the bulbs are reasonably inexpensiveand when you could easily grow your own? On their own roots they are likely to last longer than cut flowers too! White standards with yellow falls, flowering in May, 18-24" (45-60cm)
Planting instructions
Plant them 4" (10cm) deep and 4-6” (10-15cm) apart in a well drained position in full sun or very light shade. Water well on planting, and thereafter moderately.
