Gold Variegated Zebra Iris is a semi-evergreen bulb perennial with long, aromatic sword-shaped variegated foliage that is gray-green with golden stripes and fan upwards. Sturdy stalks that grow from the center of the plant are topped by fragrant lavender-blue flowers from late spring into summer, attracting bees. Grows best in humusy, moist sell-drained soils. Drought, deer, and disease resistant. Note: handle with gloves.
