One of the most easily grown Iris, this adaptable Siberian Iris will tolerate a wide range of soils. It will adapt to poor, dry soil or boggy conditions; but best planted in medium to moist, well-drained, fertile, slightly acid soil.

Plant on hillsides for erosion control, along a stream, water garden or pond, and a great patio container plant. Use in massed plantings to provide weed control. Water regularly during the first growing season to establish a deep, extensive root system to help make them drought resistant, once established.

Excellent cut flower, but lasts only 1 to 2 days. Less susceptible to iris borer and soft rot than tall bearded iris. Low maintenance and deer resistant.

Siberian irises are haled for their elegant, delicate flowers and disease resistance. They perform admirably in the sunny to partially shady garden, but need plenty of water throughout the season to continue looking their best. In naturalized settings, they are particularly effective around water features. They can also be grown under Black Walnut trees since they are not effected by juglone. Siberian Irises bloom before Japanese Irises but after Tall Bearded Irises.
