Well, I don't usually care all that much for white iris, and use them, mostly, to "set off" the colors in the others,.....but....This is my "favorite oldie", at least for today! I've grown this old thing for years, and it is one of those "bullet proof" things, that bloom ,no matter what! Makes a nice clump in just a short time, and, being an early bloomer, does a good job of brightening up the border, when interspaced with the spring bulbs. It has always been known, in my garden, as NOID #5, but, no more ! Lucy was kind enough to "guest " a start of it ,for comparison in her garden. Now this old gal has her name back! Snow Maiden (Chadwick 1935) will replace NOID#5 in my logbook !
