Glacial blue patterns stud the crisp white petals of Iris reticulata Polar Ice, reminiscent of crystals on an icy white-blue background accented by a yellow throat which glows like the arctic sun.A recent introduction, blue feathering on the falls is intriguing. The beauty has been what artists have striven to capture on canvas for generations. Nowadays photographers have taken up this quest. However, nothing will match the beauty of an Iris you have grown yourself in your garden.The delicate-looking, orchid-like, flowers are tougher and hardier than they look. Excellent as cut flowers for your home, so they can be admired at a closer distance.Originating from the cold and dry mountainous areas of Turkey, Iraq and Russia, Iris reticulata Polar Ice is fully hardy, even pushing their way through a covering of snow. Happily naturalising if left undisturbed, Polar Ice will grow to a height of approximately 10cm, and will thrive in poor, well-drained soil in sun.
