KATRINA® African Iris

KATRINA® (Dietes) is a superior selection of African iris with increased tolerance to heavy, poorly drained soils and hot, humid environments. In southern regions, it resists root and crown diseases that affect the species. Exotic white flowers with yellow-orange markings appear on tall stalks over a long bloom period, as flowers seldom set seed. Improved foliage is brighter green with wider, longer blades. A portion of proceeds benefits the America's Wetlands Foundation.
