Dietes grandiflora (Fairy Iris)

5 from 1 customers

Fairy Iris

Dietes grandiflora, commonly called Fairy Iris, is prized for its sword‑like evergreen foliage and delicate white flowers marked with yellow and violet that bloom in succession through spring and summer. Exceptionally hardy and drought‑tolerant once established, it thrives in full sun to part shade and free‑draining soil—making it an ideal choice for low‑maintenance borders, banks, and mass plantings in New Zealand gardens.
