Soft blue and white flowers that look great with greens and pinks make Clarence a very garden friendly color.

Iris unguicularis (also commonly known as the Algerian iris) is a rhizomatous flowering plant native to Greece, Turkey, Western Syria, and Tunisia.

 

It grows to 30 centimetres (12 in), with grassy evergreen leaves, producing pale lilac or purple flowers with a central band of yellow on the falls. The flowers appear in winter and early spring. They are fragrant, with pronounced perianth tubes.

 

It is widely cultivated in temperate regions, and numerous cultivars have been selected for garden use, including a slightly more tender white form 'Alba', and a dwarf variety I. unguicularis subsp. cretensis. The cultivar 'Mary Barnard' has gained the Royal Horticultural Society's Award of Garden Merit.
