Iris 'Actress' (TB)
This stunning iris caused quite a stir at the Chelsea Flower Show in 2012. Pale to mid blue flowers with a misty bluey white area towards the centre of the lower petals. The flowers are tightly ruffled and open quite slowly over a couple of days which only serves to heighten the anticipation of the show. A really robust variety which holds its own in adverse weather. Free flowering and beautiful. Height up to 85cm.
