We obtained this Jim Archibald selection from NC gardener Mike Chelednik in 2002, and although many of the rare white-flowered forms of Iris unguicularis are weak growers, this is not the case with Iris 'Great White'. The 20" tall x 2' wide clumps of Iris unguicularis 'Great White' are adorned in late fall until April (weather permitting) with fragrant, pure white flowers nestled among the foliage. Iris 'Great White' is always in very limited supply, so don't delay.
