Contrast in Styles Siberian Iris gets its name for the incredible contrasting colours that adorn the flowers. The 3-5 inch flowers have rich purple standards and falls (outer petals) with lighter blue-purple styles (inner petals). After the blooms finish in late summer the grass like foliage remains fresh looking all season. Try this beautiful perennial around water features, in borders, or plant many as a focal point.
