Siberian Iris 'PARASOL'

.



.




The Siberian Iris PARASOL, formerly known as 'HARASUGATA' clumps up well. The style will probably not appeal to traditional Siberian Iris purist, but these spectacular forms of Siberians can add novelty to the perennial border.

Another extraordinary hat tip to Mike Unser for sharing the photo which is an outstanding display of this variety.
