Broadleigh Peacock




A pretty iris, though 'peacock' might be pushing it a bit. Smaller than other PCIs and not as strong growing, but good and reliable. I have this in the wrong place in the garden as it is rather overpowered by I. innominata right next to it, which is of similar colouration and much more vigorous. I may move it in 2024. It needs to be at the front of a border to be properly appreciated.
