'Bluebird Wine' Bearded Iris combines two glorious tones for a timeless spring bloom with wide, silky petals. Softer lavender hues grace the upright standard petals with streaks of violet, while deep violet emphasizes the ruffled falls. Bearded Irises are wonderful for sunny, drier gardens, and are reliably deer resistant. (Iris germanica)
To determine if a plant is sufficiently cold hardy, the USDA created numbered zones indicating winter low
temperatures; the lower the zone number the colder the winter.
If the coldest winter temperature expected in your area is -15°F (zone 5) then any plants rated zones 3-5 will
survive the winter temperatures in your area.
If you live in very warm winter areas (zones 9-11) plants with zones 3-4 ratings are not recommended. The lack
of freezing winter temperatures do not provide a time for winter dormancy (rest).
These majestic flowers are surprisingly easy to grow, and actually require less attention than almost any other garden flowers. Your iris rhizomes will arrive already growing in a small pot, with this spring’s growth beginning. A rhizome is an irregularly shaped bulbous root that grows at a right angle from the foliage. Simply remove your Bearded Iris from the pot and plant with the top of their rhizomes exposed. Once planted, the new spring foliage will continue to grow and produce gorgeous, iconic blooms. Over time, the rhizomes will spread and multiply, delivering even more Bearded Iris blooms to your planting area as the years pass.
