Iris ensata Ruby King - Marginal Pond Plants - BP067A

Iris ensata 'Ruby King', 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 large, flat, showy flowers in deep ruby-red to violet shades, 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 strong architectural interest are desired.
