Iris ensata ‘Valerie’s Gift’

 

 

On August 4, 2007, Ric Loyd and Valerie White were married in Harpswell. As we walked the garden selecting flowers for their wedding bouquets, this white Japanese iris “caught our eye.”   We included it in the flower arrangements and now mark this eventful day with a gift for the bride.

 

The crisp, white of the falls is accented by the green-yellow (RHS 1B) signal. It has tetraploid substance, round, ruffled form and blooms well in the August sun.
