Description

Yellow flag with distinct tiger markings on the petals. This species is from very ancient origins. The Iris pseudacorus Berlin Tiger is a beautiful slow-growing variety of iris with stunning brown or maroon streaked flowers on a dark yellow background. This variety produces relatively little foliage, making it ideal for those who want to create a low-maintenance garden. The Iris pseudacorus Berlin Tiger is perfect for damp, shady areas and will bring a touch of elegance to any 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.
