Tall Bearded Iris 'Lacy Snowflake': A 1976 Schreiner Introduction

Tall Bearded Iris 'Lacy Snowflake' is a pristine cultivar introduced in 1976 by Schreiner's Gardens. Its name evokes delicate winter beauty, and its flowers are a study in pure white elegance.

Pure White Perfection

'Lacy Snowflake' produces large, heavily laced and ruffled flowers of a pure, clean white self (standards and falls same color) with a white beard tipped with pale yellow. The lacing is exceptionally fine and intricate, giving the petals a frosted, crystalline appearance. Stems are 36 to 40 inches, strong, well-branched, with 7-9 buds.

Garden Purity

This iris is a beacon of light in the garden. It grows vigorously in full sun with well-drained soil. 'Lacy Snowflake' increases well and forms stunning white clumps. Its heavy ruffling and lacing catch the light beautifully. It is a classic choice for white gardens and moon gardens.

Schreiner's White Mastery

Schreiner's has produced many outstanding white irises. 'Lacy Snowflake', introduced in 1976, is celebrated for its exceptional lacing—a trait that adds a unique textural dimension to the classic white iris.
