Description |
Though not new at all, ‘Sapphire Hills’ is still for us one of the best median and true blue. Mid-blue with discreet white-lemon beards. Well-branched and good vigour. | Gracefully shaped flowers with sky blue standards and darker blue-violet plicata markings on ruffled ivory falls. Popular iris, prize-winner several times despite a moderate average count of buds (only 5 to 6). | Pure white standards and white falls with a wide pure mid-blue border. Pale yellow beards. Excellent grower and bloomer. "Alizes" gained the RHS Award of Garden Merit in 2000. | Perfectly plain raspberry or rosy mulberry, beards the same. Excellent new colour and interesting variety for hybridizers who would like to create a true red iris. RHS Award of Garden Merit 2006. |
