This is a presale. Shipping will be mid to late July. FIERY TEMPER - Tall Bearded Iris Bright tangerine beards embody the spirit of this new wine-red bit-one. The rosy dahlia purple of the standards balances the deep wine red of the falls. Rumbling ruffles add rhythmic energy. Slightly fragrant.
A Note from Bonnie 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..
