Bearded irises flower in early summer, providing a delightful display of blooms that add a touch of elegance to any border. This tall bearded iris has delicate, ruffled flowers in a soft, flax-blue. They are held above fans of sturdy, sword-shaped, grey-green leaves. Remember not to plant the rhizomes too deeply, they actually photosynthesize and help to provide food for strong plant growth and flower production.
Looks good with:
Geranium phaeum 'Album'Paeonia lactiflora 'Bowl of Beauty'
