Iris sibirica - Butter and Sugar
An elegant and award-winning Siberian iris, ‘Butter and Sugar’ showcases enchanting white standards framed by buttery-yellow falls, accented with subtle greenish-yellow veining for a refined two-tone effect. A profuse early-summer bloomer (typically May to June), each finely branched stem supports multiple dainty blossoms, creating a gentle cascade above slender, grass-like foliage. Reaching about 60–75 cm (24–30 in) tall and equally wide, it thrives in moist, fertile, humus-rich soils—ideal for pond edges, rain gardens, or moist borders. Hardy in Zones 3–8 (some sources list up to 9), it is low-maintenance, naturalizes over time, and is resistant to deer, rabbits, erosion, and tolerant of wet soils
