Bearded Iris - potted...in bud. Blue and white
The Bearded Iris season is just starting.
This potted bearded iris has a bud just coming out. It is a median iris with blue and white ruffled blooms.
Name: Frothing Slosh
A hardy reliable little iris.
Bearded Irises are not fussy with soil type and do like the sun. They are perennials coming up every year, and dying down a bit in the winter. They don't mind being frosted and unusually like their rhizomes sitting on top of the soil where they can sunbath.
This iris was potted up last season, is Wairarapa acclimatized and could slip out of its pot into the garden very easily.
The flowers are from the parent plant. The plant in the pot, in bud, is the one for sale.
Thanks for looking.
Pickup is in Kuripuni.
Thanks for looking.

Many New Zealand gardens aren’t seeing as many monarch butterflies fluttering around their swan plants and flower beds these days — the hungry Asian paper wasp has been taking its toll.
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!

I'm a fruit. If you take away my first letter, I'm a crime. If you take away my first two letters, I'm an animal. If you take away my first and last letter, I'm a form of music. What am I?
