Classic Cool Bearded Iris

A Tall Bearded in the self style, 'Classic Cool' (Iris germanica) blooms later into the Bearded Iris season and delivers an icy cool, refreshing entrance into the heat of summer.
Majestic Bearded Irises are easy to grow, and some of the most persistent perennial flowers available. Late spring blooms offer a colorful display to bridge the gap between spring-blooming bulbs and summer-blooming perennials. Distinctive sword-shaped foliage adds elegant texture to the garden, even after blooms have passed. Reblooming varieties offer a second fall bloom. Bearded Irises grow from rhizomes, or bulbous roots that grow at a right angle from the foliage. In most areas, Bearded Irises need least 6-8 hours of sunlight a day, while in hotter climates (zones 8-11), they will need some daily shade. Over time, they will spread and multiply to add even more flowers to your garden.
