Tidings features a blue-violet bi tone that is highlighted by a tawny blending of brown in its shoulders. This iris is a strong grower and very ruffled. In addition this stunning iris consistently offers three branches with 8-9 blossoms on each of its sturdy stiff stems and holds up to the inclement weather. Day time it looks more purple and evenings it looks more blue. Pictures are of same plant at different times. STUNNING!Grows to 36”, Mid bloom 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.
