This is a presale. Shipping will be mid to late July. Dating a Royal - Tall Bearded Iris Your gaze zooms in on the bright orange beard, and doesn’t want to move. Pink-toned lavender standards help ease Dating A Royal into its own amoena category. The three colors combine intoxicatingly. Large, rounded falls have a light wire on the periphery. It’s a stunning package -- white eyelashes setting off the orange beard, nesting in a rich field of royal blue violet. Grows to 36" and blooms mid to late season.

Iris rhizomes are best divided and transplanted after the plants finish blooming and have enough time to store nutrition in their roots. July through September is the best time to dig them up in Ohio. All Iris are grown on my farm and shipped from my home, bareroot with foliage and roots attached. BONUS rhizomes are always included at an average rate of 1 for every 5 purchased...my choice.
