IRIS SPURIA Zones 3-9 (Spuria Iris)

Spuria irises extend the iris season by blooming mid-June. Foliage is 3' tall and looks good all season. Blooms on 3½'-4' stalks, making a strong vertical accent. Wonderful as cut flowers. Did we say that they are elegant? They most definitely are! Large flowers are quite open. Water a lot until they become established. Then they are quite drought tolerant.
