Iris albomarginata is a species in the genus Iris, in the subgenus of Scorpiris.
It was first described by (Russian Botanist Boris Fedtschenko) in Bulletin de l'Herbier Boissier, page 917 in 1904. But it was called Iris coerulea. When Foster was working on irises, he found that Iris coerulea was used to name an Iris pumila hybrid. He then renamed the iris as Iris albomarginata due to the fact that the leaves of the iris had a white edging. This edging was a characteristic of several of the species in the Scorpiris subgenus section of irises.
It was then re-published as Iris albomarginata in 'Contributions from the Gray Herbarium' of Harvard University in 1936.
Iris albomarginata is an accepted name by the RHS.
Several specimums can be found in Royal Botanic Garden Edinburgh.
Habit
It has bright blue flowers with a white crest. It sometimes has yellow marks on the crest. The falls area white with a yellow centre.
It has 2-5 flowers on a short stem.

It has smooth dark green leaves between 1 and 2 cm wide and the plant reaches 30 cm (1 ft) in height. It also has a bright white edging to all the leaves. The stem is just visible behind the leaves.
It is hardy to USDA Zone: 4. In the UK it is better grown in an Alpine house or bulb frame.
Native
Found in Central Asia (Tien Shan and Fergana mountains) and the Alayskiy in Kyrgyzstan and Tajikistan, USSR. It is found on the clay and stone foothills at 2000m above sea level.
