Also known as the Tall Bearded Iris. It is a giant bloomer and looks great planted as a border plant. Plants form a clump of green foliage that has sword-shaped leaves. The stems of the Iris are upright and are able to hold up the very large blooms. The Loop de Loop variety features a bold white flag-like flower with purple edging. This is an herbaceous perennial with a medium texture that will require occasional maintenance and upkeep. Recommended to use as mass planting, or in general garden use.

The Iris will grow to be about 3 ft at maturity, with a spread of 24 inches. If you are growing the Iris in masses or used as a bedding plant space them apart approximately by 18 inches apart.
