Katherine Hodgkin is a dwarf early spring blooming iris that is looks as delicate as a butterfly's wing, but possesses a robust nature that makes it a very early garden go-to for many homeowners and landscapers alike, flowering at the same time as Snowdrops. The dainty flowers are speckled and striated in light blue with golden yellow accents—eye-catching, indeed. Plants are compact at 5" tall at maturity.
