The large and extravagant two-tone blooms have falls, which are the lower petals, in golden yellow with burgundy stripes and standards, or upper petals, in copper with a flush of pink.

The long, strappy grey-green leaves and incredibly strong flower stems look fantastic planted in groups, and they are excellent cut flowers too. Supplied as a pack of 25 bulbs, growing to a height of 50 cm (20 in) and width of 20 cm (8 in).
Iris reticulata Blue is a dwarf, early flowering iris that is a native of mountainous parts of Russia, Turkey and Iran. Narrow, erect foliage gives rise to richly coloured flower stems with vibrant cobalt blue blooms that have a bright golden yellow and white markings along the centre of each petal, giving them an orchid-like look. Appearing in March and April, the flowers are loved by bees and a host of other pollinators that appreciate the early source of nectar, and each one carries a wonderful fragrance. Iris reticulata make a wonderful display when planted together in pots and they also work well in rock and gravel gardens or try them as a gorgeous centrepiece for your patio table. Preferring well drained soil and a sunny location, they will happily naturalise and spread, returning bigger and better every year. The bulbs can be lifted and divided in autumn. Supplied as 25 bulbs, size 5/7 ready for planting in autumn, growing to a height of 15 cm (6 in) and spread of 10 cm (4 in).
