Named for UK plantsman Martyn Rix, this Iris gets bamboo-like stems to 2'-3' topped by fans of long green leaves from which the long flower stems emerge bearing a swarm of dark blu e-violet flowers which are deeper colored than typical for the species. This would boogie in a rich moist in a partially shaded site in a mild garden. We usually get a brief cold snap each winter which keeps us from being San Francisco and that cold snap takes off the canes carrying the flower buds so we get to enjoy blooms in our cool greenhouses or visit friends in town who are just that much warmer. Very cool and worth growing. Evergreen in most non-violent winters. Show more
