Iris by Type

Border Bearded Iris
These are essentially small versions of the Tall Bearded. Both have stem heights ranging from 16 to 28 inches and bloom at the same time as the Tall Bearded. Table Iris (i.e.: Miniature Tall Bearded) have daintier flowers and thin wiry stems.

Dwarf Iris
Ranging in Height from 9 to 15 inches tall, these Iris have flowers 2 to 4 inches wide. Blooming just after the Miniature Dwarf Bearded Iris in early spring, they are ideal for edgings and the fronts of borders.

Intermediate Iris
Blooming after the dwarfs, these Iris are taller and larger than the earlier relatives. A wide range of color in really charming flowers to cheer your early garden scene with Iris at tulip time.

Siberian Iris
These Iris, contrary to their name, are not necessarily native to Siberia. They are certainly very cold hardy, vigorous and relatively maintenance-free. Flowers are 4 to 5 inches wide on stems ranging from 2 to 4 feet tall. Their graceful grass-like foliage and sturdy stems are naturally attractive in a border even when not in bloom.

Species Iris
Iris are known for their great diversity of literally hundreds of different species. Here we offer a small selection from the beardless Species group. They are an ever-growing source of pleasure that can enhance your garden with their delicate beauty.

Tall Bearded Iris
These are the gorgeous queens of the Iris world, with magnificent 6 inch blooms displayed on stems over 29 inches high. The later-blooming flowers are available in every color of the spectrum and include an incredible variety of color patterns and combinations.

Water Iris
Hailing from Louisiana and the southern USA these Iris are naturally a water or bog plant. They present a spectacular range of color, including the truest red hue found in Iris. Flowers can range from 4 to 6 inches with stalks up to 4 feet high. These cold-hardy, disease-resistant Iris are at home almost everywhere in the garden, as well as on the edges of ponds.

Louisiana Iris are shipped in September and early October only.
