Bearded Iris - under 50cms in height
Median height irises and wind resistant and grow no taller than 50cms.
They lIke the sun. Come up each year. Not invasive.
They can do well in a big pot too.
I do have a lovely pot full with heaps of rhizomes of a Miniature iris called ( Mary B.) as well. It is more than happy in a pot, or in a border edge or in a rockery. It grows no more than 30cms high and has little purple edged white flowers with mauve standards. That established little plant would be 12.00.

Thanks to people like Alan Baldick, who’s made it his mission to protect the monarch, his neighbours still get to enjoy these beautiful butterflies in their own backyards.
Thinking about planting something to invite more butterflies, bees, and birds into your garden?
Thanks for your mahi, Alan! We hope this brings a smile!
