Easy to Grow Bulbs Bearded Iris

This variety is specifically bred to produce a primary flush of flowers in the spring and a second, reliable bloom cycle in the late summer or fall. While the spring bloom is typically the most prolific, the fall rebloom provides extended seasonal interest.

Plant the rhizomes horizontally with the top of the rhizome just barely covered by soil. Planting them too deep can cause the rhizome to rot or prevent the plant from blooming properly.

While the Victoria Falls Iris is hardy in zones 3 through 10, the reblooming trait is most reliable in zones 5 through 10. In colder climates, the growing season may be too short to support a second round of flowers.

Space your rhizomes 8 to 12 inches apart. This allows for adequate air circulation, which is essential for keeping the plants healthy and preventing common fungal issues.

Yes, Bearded Irises are naturally unappealing to deer and rabbits due to their texture and taste. While no plant is 100% immune, they are a reliable choice for gardens where wildlife browsing is a common concern.

For the best performance and flower production, plant them in a location that receives full sun to partial sun. At least six hours of direct sunlight daily is recommended to ensure strong, upright stems and consistent reblooming.
