Know before you buy
The Immortality iris is bred to bloom twice in a single season. You can expect a primary flush of flowers in late spring, followed by a second, reliable display in late summer or early autumn.
For the best performance and repeat blooming, plant this iris in a spot that receives full sun. While it can tolerate partial shade, too little light may reduce the number of flowers produced.
Yes, the foliage and flowers of the Immortality iris are generally unappealing to deer and rabbits. While no plant is 100% immune to hungry wildlife, this variety is a reliable choice for gardens prone to browsing.
Space your rhizomes 12 to 24 inches apart. This allows enough room for the plants to spread and ensures proper air circulation, which is essential for keeping the foliage healthy.
The Immortality iris is quite adaptable and thrives with average water. It is considered waterwise, meaning it can handle periods of dryness once it has established a strong root system.
Absolutely. With a mature spread of about 12 inches and a height of 29 inches, it is well-suited for smaller spaces, rock gardens, or large containers where you want to enjoy its fragrance up close.
