Iris ensata Dinner Plate - Blueberry Pie
This Japanese iris features enormous, dramatically flat violet-blue blooms—each up to 6‑in (15 cm) across—with bright yellow centers that pop against striking petals. The flowers open on strong upright stems rising above stiff, sword-shaped green foliage that gives a refined vertical presence. Blooming in early to mid‑summer, it's ideal planted near pond edges or in moist, acidic soil where it can be regularly watered. Hardy in USDA Zones 4–9, it is deer-resistant, pollinator-friendly, and low-maintenance—with excellent cut flower potential and naturalizing habit.
