Iris ensata 'Moonlight Waves'



3rd June 2009


I don't think this is the real thing, it seems to be a form of Iris sibirica.

This one might be. It should be a pure white, ruffled flower with yellow flashes at the base of the petals and this seems to fit. Introduced to the trade in 1910 by Robert Wallace or Robert W Wallace & co, of Tunbridge Wells. It has been suggested that it was bred by Arthur J. Bliss because most of the Bliss cultivars were introduced by Wallace. (Ballyrobert Gardens)
