With green sword-shaped foliage, 'Cinque Terre' adds vertical interest all season long. Plant in a sunny location in average, well-drained soil. Bearded Iris won’t tolerate soggy conditions, so be sure you have good drainage with raised beds if necessary. As blooms fade, simply snap them off for a clean look.
