Iris ensata – Don & Donna
A graceful Japanese (water) iris, ‘Don & Donna’ presents pale blue-white falls richly laced with dark blue veins and a soft halo, paired with striking dark style arms and a golden signal. Its blooms are dramatic and large (about dinner-plate size), carried on tall stems that can reach 40 in (≈ 102 cm) in height. This cultivar makes a bold statement in moist borders, pond edges, or water gardens, combining elegance with garden presence. It blooms in mid-summer and thrives in moist, rich soil with a preference for consistent moisture or marginally wet conditions.
