Native of Dalmatia in Croatia, this iris is a semi-evergreen rhizomatous Bearded Iris noted for its striking foliage and showy, scented purple flowers. The unique variegated foliage consists of sword-like leaves, striped with creamy yellow and gray-green.  Long-lasting, it extends its interest into late fall. Large lavender-blue flowers appear in late spring.
