Spuria Irises

Spuria Irises are a classic and beautiful option for Houston gardens. Because their height is 3-5′ they are usually planted in the back of a bed or along a fence, they are ideal vertical accents. They do not like to be disturbed; keep them in the same place for a number of years. Plant rhizomes 1-2″ deep, with good drainage. Heavy watering in spring will increase growth and bloom. The flowers are long-lasting and great in flower arrangements.
