Iris TB ‘On Edge’

'On Edge' is a curious Iris with lavender-blue upright petals and pure white falls edged in purple.

‘On Edge’ is a unique and unusual bearded Iris with a delightful disconnect between top and bottom: the upright petals (standards) are a delicate lavender-blue while the downward petals (falls) are pure white edged in purple. It’s the kind of combo that makes you do a double take as you walk along your perennial border. A classic yellow beard completes the show. Blooms early to mid season.
