Growing Bearded Irises: Named for the Greek goddess of the rainbow, Irises are majestic flowers that have been developed into an amazing array of colors, with upright sword-shaped foliage that adds elegant texture to the garden even after flowers have passed. “Standards” are the upright petals, and “falls” are the name for the lower petals. Bearded Irises are surprisingly easy to grow, with late spring blooms that bridge the gap from spring into summer. They are deer resistant, rabbit resistant, and drought-resistant, making them a great choice for low-maintenance gardens. Bearded Irises grow vigorously from rhizomes - an irregularly shaped bulbous root that grows at a right angle from the foliage. Over time, the rhizomes will spread and multiply, delivering even more Bearded Iris blooms to your garden as the years pass.

"This bearded iris is breathtaking- it has a few different shades of purple that flow together to create a work of art on the petals. It will look beautiful in any garden! We planted these variety at our office in Shelburne VT late last summer. By late May, this flower was in full bloom and bringing so much visual interest to our garden! Highly recommend this variety."
"will change review if it blooms next year"
"Brown leaves and bulb when delivered! Absolutely not a drop of moisture in the bag. For $12 plus shipping for one tuber, you certainly expect it to be a live plant when it gets delivered. I planted it any but there is no sign of growth entering it's dormant period. I also bought the Ziggy reblooming iris and although it too was dry, it had enough pale green leaves that it might make it. I hope the seeds that are coming this week are a better product."
