Iris foetidissima
€6.00
Dutch Tax included
Description
An evergreen perennial that, unlike many others of its kind, causes two surprises during the growing season.
The first is accompanied by an interesting floral display in a light brownish hue different from irises, followed a few months later by and abundance of fruits containing fiery red berries. There is also a white fruiting form, which, together with the red berries, can provide a nice shade of colour. The freshly harvested fruits pop open after a few days, revealing the red seed berries, which serve as an ornament for many months indoors in a glass bowl.
