Iris danfordiae

    Rock Garden Icon

    Plant Type: Perennials

    This little beauty is renowned for its ability to off-set and form colorful mats of bright yellow flowers. Very cold hardy. The Dwarf Iris is a cheerful yellow and adds bright early perennial color for any wildflower or rock garden. These are one of most commonly planted wild dwarf irises. They are dependably hardy in the zones as shown, and they have such large flowers for their height. They are a delight to see with their sunny cheer in very early spring, often even before the last snow has melted.
