Baby Duck Iris

Dive into a Feathery Fluff of Charm!

Imagine a tiny island in a sun-drenched pond, a miniature paradise where fluffy ducklings waddle and giggle. That’s the playful spirit Iris ‘Baby Duck’ evokes, a whimsical bloom that’s as adorable as it is captivating. Forget the towering giants of the iris world, Baby Duck hops in with a charm that’s all its own.

Perfection:

  • Height: 43 inches tall.
  • Blooms: Sunshine yellow standards shimmer with a hint of peach, while the falls reveal a velvety peach-orange center, fading to golden edges. 
  • Form: Lightly ruffled petals add a touch of whimsy, making Baby Duck look like a joyful dancer twirling in the breeze.

Sweet Sunshine in Bloom:

  • Bloom Time: Mid-season brings a sprinkle of sunshine with Baby Duck’s cheerful blooms, lasting from late spring to early summer. It’s like a little pocket of happiness in your garden.
  • Fragrance: A light, sweet scent floats on the air, adding another layer of charm to this irresistible iris.
