Stinking Gladwyn
Yellow tinted, dull purple flowers in June and dark green leaves, which release an unpleasant odour when crushed. The stinking or gladwyn iris is mainly grown for its seed-pods, which split in autumn to reveal bright orange berries. A valuable ornamental plant for those difficult areas of dry shade, it's tolerant of salt-laden air.Position: full sun or partial shadeSoil: well-drained, moderately fertile soilRate of growth: fast-growingFlowering period: JuneFlower colour: purpleOther features: all parts of the plant may cause severe discomfort if ingestedHardiness: fully hardyGarden care: Plant shallowly with the upper part of the rhizome sitting on the surface of the soil, incorporating a low nitrogen fertiliser in the planting hole. After planting remove the upper-most third of the leaves to minimise the incidence of wind-rock.Goes well with: Hemerocallis 'Gentle Shepherd', Kniphofia 'Percy's Pride', Eryngium variifolium, Alchemilla mollis, Paeonia lactiflora 'Kelway's Glorious', Echinops ritro |
