Description
The Copper Iris (Iris fulva) is native from southern Illinois and Missouri south to Mississippi and Louisiana, and along the coast to Georgia. Its natural home is along streams, riverbanks, and freshwater marshes, most commonly found in the MIssissippi River Valley, and it’s an excellent addition to gardens that see an abundance of rain or frequent watering.
The Copper Iris colonizes by rhizomes, so thin them out if they spread too vigorously. This Iris grows best with at least 6 hours of sun each day, and attracts hummingbirds and bees to your yard. If the leaves don’t get too wet or too dry, they’ll likely stick around through winter. Cut and pair these Irises with purple and blue varieties for a brilliant floral display.
Planting & Care
Shipping
No shipping data
As soon as your order is placed you will receive a confirmation email. You will receive a second email the day your order ships telling you how it has been sent. Some perennials are shipped as potted plants, some as perennial roots packed in peat. The ‘Plant Information’ section describes how that item will ship. All perennials and fall-planted bulbs are packaged to withstand shipping and are fully-guaranteed. Please open upon receipt and follow the instructions included.
Perennials and fall-planted bulbs are shipped at the proper planting time for your Growing Zone. Perennial and fall-planted bulb orders will arrive separately from seeds. If your order requires more than one shipment and all items are shipping to the same address, there is no additional shipping charge. See our shipping information page for approximate ship dates and more detailed information. If you have any questions, please call Customer Service at (802) 227-7200 or contact us by email or chat.
