Gilbert H. Wild City Lights Iris

A reblooming iris has the potential to flower more than once during the growing season. While the primary flush occurs in the spring, you may see a second round of blooms later in the year if conditions are favorable.

Yes, this variety is suitable for container gardening. Ensure your pot has excellent drainage and is large enough to accommodate the rhizome, as bearded irises prefer not to sit in soggy soil.

This iris performs best in full sun, meaning at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight daily. While it can tolerate partial sun, you will get the most robust blooms and strongest stems with maximum light exposure.

Yes, this variety is known for a distinct, sweet fragrance that many gardeners describe as reminiscent of root beer. It is a subtle but noticeable scent that adds an extra sensory layer to your garden.

While no plant is 100% immune to wildlife, this variety is highly resistant to deer and rabbits. It is a reliable choice if you garden in an area where browsing animals are a common nuisance.
