Bearded Iris
The Bearded Iris, known scientifically as Iris germanica, is a perennial plant renowned for its stunning and intricate blooms. It is characterized by its ruffled petals and a distinctive "beard" on its falls (the lower petals).
Bearded irises typically have large, showy flowers with six petals: three upright petals called standards and three drooping petals called falls. The falls often have a fuzzy or hairy texture (the "beard") near their centers. The plant has sword-shaped leaves that grow in a fan-like arrangement.
Bearded Irises are perfect for borders due to their height and stunning blooms – typically planted in the middle or back of the border due to their height. Combine Bearded Irises with other perennials like daylilies, peonies, and lupines to extend the blooming season and add varied textures.
Mass plantings can make a bold statement and are especially effective in large garden spaces.
The bearded iris bulbs are easy to plant and can spread rather quickly

The plants we ship are bare root and dormant. They have no leaves, blooms, greenery, or foliage. We do not ship plants in a container. Why pay 500% more for a container and heavy soil to be shipped? Also, dormant plants have a much higher survival rate than bloomed-out or leafed-out plants. We ship healthy bare-root plants because we know they will thrive in this state when planted. That's Why we offer a 1 Year Guarantee. We know when Spring time rolls back around, your plants will do exceptionally well.
