American Meadows Persian Berry Bearded Iris
Best low-maintenance perennial for gardeners seeking dramatic, twice-yearly floral color.
This reblooming iris brings a dramatic, velvety splash of plum and wine to the garden twice a year, not just once. It’s a low-maintenance showstopper, though you’ll need to commit to well-drained soil to keep those rhizomes happy and ensure that second act of color.
