Bearded Irises love a sunny spot with well draining soil. Afternoon shade is fine, but to bloom their best, full sun is recommended. To plant your rhizomes, make a small mound in your soil. Lay the rhizome with the roots draping down the sides of the mound. Backfill your soil making sure to cover all of the roots and only half of the rhizome. They really want to bake in the sun! 

Bearded Irises can be planted anywhere from 12" to 24" apart, depending on how often you want to divide them. The closer together, the more often you will need to split them to keep them from becoming too crowded. Spacing that is further apart allows you a few years before you would need to think about splitting them.

Pre-ordering gives you first access to our most coveted iris varieties—before they’re released to the general public. If there’s a specific color or cultivar you've been dreaming of, this is your chance to reserve it ahead of the rush. Many of our limited-edition and rare selections tend to sell out quickly once sales open, so pre-ordering ensures your favorites are held just for you. It’s the best way to guarantee you don’t miss out come planting time

We start digging our Irises in late July and shipping usually begins in late August. If you are local and would like to pick up at the farm, click Pick Up in checkout.
