Van Zyverden Set Of 3 Roots Bearded Iris Firebreather

Product Description

Iris Germanic, commonly called German Iris, is the presumed father of most modern bearded iris cultivars, of which there are now thousands to enjoy. German Iris has no bulb, as it spreads by creeping rhizomes that form large clumps over time. There are now so many cultivars to choose from that it is often difficult to decide which variety you like best. They perennialize and naturalize very well, with little to no effort. Bearded Iris bloom descriptions consist of falls, beards, and standards and become quite technical, especially by iris lovers. They are showy, fragrant perennials that are both deer and drought resistant.
Firebreather is a superb variety that was chosen for it unique coloring.
