Add item to quote to see pricing

Orthrosanthus multiflorus is the quintessential Morning Iris, a hardy and gorgeous evergreen perennial that hails all the way from Australia. Striking in its simplicity, it features tall, slender leaves, green and arching, that elegantly mimic the form of ornamental grass. Rising majestically up to 50-70 cm tall, it creates a dynamic backdrop for its pièce de résistance - the sky-blue, star-shaped flowers that leisurely open at dawn before retiring by midday. When full sun casts its rays, or even partial shade, the Morning Iris is in its element, comfortably thriving in well-drained soils. As far as water usage goes, this beauty is refreshingly low-maintenance, proving a certain resilience with its drought-tolerance. Whether adorning borders, adding a refreshing splash of color to rock or cottage gardens, or braving the winds in coastal areas, the Morning Iris brings a touch of natural elegance and captivating color where it stands.
