Iris ensata 'Dinner Plate Jell-o'

Iris ensata 'Dinner Plate Jell-O', commonly known as Japanese iris, is a clump-forming perennial with upright, sword-shaped green leaves forming a neat, architectural mound. In early to mid-summer, it produces exceptionally large, flat, showy flowers in soft pink to lavender shades with delicate markings, creating a dramatic and eye-catching display in borders or near water features.

The flowers attract bees and other pollinators, giving the plant ecological value. Its upright, moisture-loving habit makes it ideal for pond edges, damp borders, and naturalistic plantings where bold summer colour and structural interest are desired.
