This dainty hybrid iris is a probable hybrid of Iris innominata and Iris macrosiphon. It forms low clumps of narrow deep green leaves and is smaller in scale than the typical Pacifica hybrid iris. Spring flowers are soft blue lavender with a white and yellow central zone with violet veined spray pattern. Sun or part shade, reasonably well drained soil, moderate to little watering when established. Hardy to 15 degrees F. or less. Suncrest Nurseries introduction.
