Know before you buy
Unlike standard varieties that bloom only once, this iris is genetically capable of flowering twice in a single season. You can expect the first flush of white blooms in late spring, followed by a second display in late summer or early fall.
These rhizomes require full sun, which means at least six to eight hours of direct sunlight daily. Planting them in a shaded area will likely result in weak stems and a lack of flowers.
Yes, the foliage and flowers of the Bearded Iris are generally unpalatable to deer and rabbits. While no plant is 100% immune if local wildlife is desperate, this variety is a reliable choice for gardens prone to animal browsing.
For the best results, space your rhizomes 12 to 24 inches apart. This allows for proper air circulation, which is essential for preventing rot and keeping the plants healthy as they mature to their 34-38 inch height.
Absolutely. The Immortality Iris is an excellent choice for cut flowers due to its sturdy stems and highly fragrant, pure white blooms. Cut them when the buds are just beginning to open to maximize their vase life.
Once established, these irises are quite drought tolerant and prefer well-drained soil. You should avoid overwatering, as the rhizomes can rot if left in standing water or overly soggy conditions.
