Fragrant Tall Bearded Iris Collection

Bareroot means the plants are shipped without soil around the roots while in a dormant state. This is a standard, healthy way to transport perennials, as it allows them to establish themselves directly into your garden soil once planted.

While these varieties are known for their potential to rebloom in late summer or fall, reblooming depends on local climate conditions, adequate moisture, and proper care. They are guaranteed to bloom in June, with subsequent flushes occurring if the plant is well-established and healthy.

You should space these irises 18 to 24 inches apart. This ensures proper air circulation, which is essential for keeping the rhizomes healthy and preventing rot.

Tall Bearded Irises are generally resistant to deer and many common garden critters. Their foliage and rhizomes are not typically preferred by browsing animals, making them a reliable choice for gardens prone to wildlife pressure.

These irises require full sun, meaning at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight daily. They must be planted in well-drained soil to prevent the rhizomes from sitting in water, which can cause them to decay.

The foliage remains attractive and upright throughout the growing season, providing a clean, vertical architectural element to your garden beds even when the plant is not in bloom.
