Iris louisiana 'Andy Dandy'
Iris louisiana 'Andy Dandy', commonly known as Andy Dandy Louisiana iris, is a clump-forming aquatic perennial with upright, sword-shaped green foliage that brings bold structure to pond margins, bog gardens, or damp borders. In late spring to early summer it produces large, richly coloured flowers with deep purple petals and bright yellow accents at the centre, creating a dramatic and eye-catching display.
This cultivar thrives in consistently moist or shallowly wet soil and supports pollinators such as bees and butterflies with its abundant blooms. Its vigorous growth habit and tolerance of wet conditions make it a reliable and striking choice for water gardens, wetland plantings, and boggy soils where moisture is dependable.
