Pacific Coast Native irises (PCN), or series Californica (CA) are tricky in many places in all but the far western area of the country in the native range, where they grow with graceful, dainty flowers usually one to two feet tall in most colors and patterns.
The striking Pacific Coast Native iris (PCN) 'Foggy Days' is described by the AIS Wiki as follows:
'FOGGY DAYS' (Joseph Ghio 2007) 10" Mid-season through late bloom. Standards white tinted blue; falls white lined blue-violet overall to distal edge, dark blue-violet signal. Bay View 2007. HM 2010, AM 2014, The Sidney B. Mitchell Medal 2017.
Thank you, Joe, for yet another award winner!
