The Siberian Iris forms a large clump of grassy foliage which remains attractive all season long. In late spring, it is set with a multitude of delicate and highly ornamental blooms. The Siberian Iris is very long lived and will not require dividing for many years. It prefers a moist site in full sun. This Iris is quite at home in a boggy situation. It will however, also adapt easily to a normal garden site provided the soil is not allowed to dry out completely. This is a very classy garden subject. Very easy to grow, hardy, low maintenance and free from pests and disease. Deer resistant.
