Plant description
The gorgeous, rich purple flowers of this striking Siberian iris top upright stems in May and June - which makes them perfect for bridging the gap between spring and summer. A versatile and relatively low maintenance plant, the slender foliage of 'Tycoon' makes it ideal for adding vertical interest to borders or pond-edges, where it will spread over time to form generous clumps.
