Iris reticulata ‘Alida’ is a pale blue dwarf iris, each fall marked with a yellow band against white feathering and dusted with dark blue speckles. These jewel-like irises always come as a lovely surprise when they lift their heads above the bare soil in February and March. They are perfect for planting in low troughs and rockeries or amassed along border edges where they can be admired at close quarters. Height: 15cm (6in). Spread: 7cm (3in).
