What customers say
Customers overwhelmingly praise the Ziggy Reblooming Bearded Iris for its stunning beauty and excellent initial quality. The vibrant mix of purple, yellow, and white blooms is frequently described as spectacular, and the rhizomes arrive healthy, indicating strong stock. The packaging also receives high marks for robustness. The main area of feedback concerns the reblooming feature. While initial spring blooms are successful, many customers report disappointment when the expected late summer or fall rebloom does not occur, especially in the first year. Success often depends on proper establishment and regional climate. The iris is highly recommended for its immediate visual impact and quality, though buyers should maintain realistic expectations regarding the consistency of the secondary bloom cycle.
