Iris sibirica 'Shirley's Choice'

Iris sibirica ‘Shirley’s Choice’
(Siberian Iris)

A graceful McEwen introduction from 1987, ‘Shirley’s Choice’ produces dainty 4-inch white flowers with charming ruffling. The standards and feathered styles form a soft central cup, giving the blooms a delicate, refined look.

The falls are white with a faint chartreuse tint that deepens near the hafts, adding subtle color and depth. This tetraploid variety blooms in midseason, with one branch and 3 buds carried on successive stalks for a lovely seasonal display.
