Iris tenax (Oregon Iris)
A splendid PNW native for full to part sun, grows about 1 ft tall with narrow semi-evergreen foliage and striking blue-purple iris blooms in late spring.
Wonderful for many pollinators, Oregon Iris is easy to grow and drought tolerant. It’s adaptable to many soil types and doesn’t mind a little winter wet, thus making it a great option for Zone 1 of a rain garden, as well as anywhere a lightly spreading perennial will be appreciated.
Super combined with daylilies (Hemerocallis)!
