Hybridizer's Comment: Living Easy is one of the best performing garden irises we grow. Vigorous, healthy plants grow into big clumps filled with classically formed flowers borne on strong show stalks. Ruffled icy white standards are flushed violet up midribs. Wide lilac falls are tinted paler blue around shocking orange beards and narrowly rimmed blue. Excellent, disease resistant foliage.
