Dutch Iris
Discovery Purple
Dutch Iris ‘Discovery Purple’ is a standout variety with deep purple petals perfectly highlighted by a touch of gold. With strong growth, exciting colour, and a longer vase life, it’s a brilliant choice for both spring borders and cut flower arrangements.
Dutch iris are easy to grow and very low maintenance. Once established, they can be left in the ground to flower year after year, and they’re just as impressive indoors as they are in the garden.
