Chinese Empress - Tall Bearded Iris

Chinese Empress is a dramatic and regal tall bearded iris of striking contrasts — cool icy blue standards float above deep red-violet to near-black falls, with bronze beards bridging the two in a bloom of imperial elegance. A reblooming very early variety that brings this extraordinary colour combination to the garden ahead of the season.

Variety details: Tall bearded iris; bicolour; rebloomer; icy blue standards; red-violet/black falls; bronze beards. Blyth, 1988; VE; 91cm.
