Cherries and Cream

Cherries and Cream is regal elegance served with contrast — a huge but refined and romantic iris that brings sophistication to any garden design. With its cream and yellow-washed standards rising above richly coloured burgundy falls edged in lilac, this variety strikes a perfect balance between light and depth.
The bronze-over-purple beard adds nuance, while the plush texture of the petals gives it presence and poise. Ideal for those who favour a more polished palette, Cherries and Cream lends a sense of structure and refinement to perennial borders and formal beds alike.
