Iris 'Snow on the Roof' a 2023 Plant Delights/JLBG introduction of our seedling selection from Iris tectorum 'Alba'. We grew hundreds of seedlings from Iris tectorum 'Alba', looking for a more vigorous performer, so we are pleased to introduce our winner to the gardening community. The 15" tall x 4' wide deciduous patch is topped, starting for us in late April with an abundance of white flowers that hover just above the foliage. We find this a tremendous improvement over its parent. Average to dry soils are perfect.
