Iris lutescens, the Crimean iris, is a dwarf rhizomatous iris. It grows on rocky or sandy slopes or in woods. It grows up to 30cm tall, has broad leaves and produces dark blue flowers in spring before the taller bearded irises. Small tufts of sword-shaped leaves sit below the dwarf, typically shaped iris flowers of deep purple-blue with a contrasting white beard.

A sunny spot at the front of a border is ideal, or in a rock garden, raised bed or larger trough. Plant several plants 50cm apart for a nice display. Lift rhizomes and divide clumps from midsummer to early autumn if they are overcrowded or failing to flower.
