Iris ‘Superstition’


Tall Bearded Iris

 USDA Zone: 3-9

Plant number: 1.287.700


Tall Bearded Iris are the giants of the late spring border, available in a rainbow of colours that will blend to suit every colour scheme. Plants form a clump of green sword-shaped leaves, bearing upright stems with very large blooms. This selection has amazing black-purple flowers with a hint of maroon. Choose a sunny position, with a well-drained, loamy soil. Bearded Iris are heavy feeders, so plan to fertilize in early spring, and again in late summer. Plants should be divided every 3 to 4 years, in August. Be on the watch for Iris borer. Excellent for cutting. CAUTION: Harmful if eaten.
