Iris 'Frequent Flyer' (White Tall Bearded Iris) - On of the most popular of the Bearded Iris. Handsome gray-green foliage on vigorous clumps with ruffled white blooms with pale lemon beards and a clean fragrance. Plant in full sun to light shade. Water and fertilize regularly. Great in the garden and for cut flowers - according to our friends at Greenwood Nursery the cut stems of 'Frequent Flyer' have flown on a Rose Parade float!  The description above is based on our research and observations of this plant growing in our nursery, in our own garden and in other gardens in the Santa Barbara area. We would appreciate hearing from anyone who has additional information about this plant, even if they disagree with what we have written.
