Description

Looking for a unique and beautiful addition to your garden? Iris pseudacorus ‘Alba’ is a stunning white cultivar of the native Yellow Flag Iris. Though not as vigorous as its yellow counterpart, this large herbaceous perennial is sure to make a statement in your garden with its tall, narrow green leaves appearing in spring, followed by its showy cream-white flowers in early summer. Made up of three outer hanging petals (falls) and three inner upright petals (standards), Iris pseudacorus ‘Alba’ is sure to turn heads and add a touch of elegance to your garden.

Repotting or planting

9cm marginal plants require potting into a larger mesh basket. Place in a pond no deeper than 1/3 maximum recommended planting depth to allow the plants to establish. 1ltr marginal plants do not require repotting, place in the pond no deeper than 1/2 maximum recommended planting depth to allow the plants to establish. 3ltr and 5ltr plants do not require repotting, as they are larger more established plants they can be placed up to the maximum recommended depth. There is no need to remove the mesh basket.

Care instructions

After foliage has died back in Autumn cut back to just above the water surface. If trimming left until spring take care not to damage emerging shoots.
