Know What Will Arrive

These Are Iris Rhizomes— Not Traditional Flower Bulbs

Bearded irises grow from thick horizontal stems called rhizomes. Your order arrives as dormant planting stock rather than a mature flowering plant. Roots, foliage and flowers develop after planting.

Timeless Height and Texture

Bring Structure to the Garden Before and After Bloom

Upright sword-shaped foliage creates a clean vertical accent, while ruffled flowers add seasonal color above lower plants. Group several rhizomes for a more noticeable display.

BED

Flower Beds

Add height behind compact annuals and low-growing perennials.

PATH

Pathway Edges

Create repeating color along a sunny garden walk or entrance.

CUT

Cut-Flower Areas

Enjoy selected stems indoors while keeping healthy foliage intact.

POT

Large Containers

Use a roomy pot with excellent drainage and adequate root space.

Living Plants Naturally Vary

Use the Images as Inspiration— Not an Exact Bloom Guarantee

Natural iris flowers can vary in shade, markings, ruffling and symmetry. Soil, sunlight, climate, plant maturity and screen settings can also affect perceived color.

COLOR

Color Can Shift

Actual petals may appear lighter, darker or less saturated than online references.

FORM

Pattern and Ruffling Differ

Each living bloom develops its own details and will not be perfectly identical.

TIME

First Bloom Timing Varies

Planting date, rhizome maturity, climate and care influence flowering.

Correct Rhizome Planting Matters

Plant Shallow and Give the Roots Room to Spread

Bearded iris rhizomes can rot when planted too deeply or left in soggy soil. Choose a bright, well-drained location and keep the rhizome top visible or only barely covered.

1

Choose 6–8 Hours of Direct Sun

Full sun supports stronger flowering. Light afternoon shade can help in extremely hot climates.

2

Prepare Fast-Draining Soil

Avoid low spots where water collects. Raised beds or gentle slopes help in heavy soil.

3

Build a Small Soil Mound

Rest the rhizome on top and spread the roots downward on both sides.

4

Keep the Rhizome Near the Surface

Leave the top visible or barely covered. In very hot climates, use up to 1 inch of loose soil.

5

Space 12–18 Inches Apart

Good spacing improves airflow and leaves room for each clump to increase.

6

Water Thoroughly After Planting

Keep new roots from drying out, but avoid constantly wet soil after establishment.

Late summer through early fall is a standard planting period. Aim to plant at least 4–6 weeks before the first hard freeze so roots can establish.

Questions Before Planting

Frequently Asked Questions

Will I receive bulbs or flowering plants?

You will receive dormant iris rhizomes according to the selected quantity. Rhizomes are horizontal planting stems, not mature flowering plants.

Are these Tall Bearded Iris?

The seller describes them as Tall Bearded Iris. Exact registered cultivar names are not shown for each color, so cultivar-level identity should be confirmed with the supplier.

How deep should I plant them?

Keep the top of the rhizome visible or just barely below the soil. In extremely hot climates, up to one inch of loose soil may be used.

How much sun do they need?

Aim for 6–8 hours of direct sunlight. Light afternoon shade can help in very hot regions, while deep shade generally reduces flowering.

How far apart should I plant them?

Space rhizomes approximately 12–18 inches apart for airflow and room to increase. Three of one variety can be arranged in a triangular cluster.

When should I plant them?

Late summer through early fall is standard. Plant at least 4–6 weeks before the first hard freeze, adjusted for local climate and package directions.

Will flowers look exactly like the images?

No exact match can be guaranteed. Natural color, markings, symmetry and ruffling vary, and screen settings can change perceived color.

Are iris rhizomes safe around pets?

No. Iris species are toxic to dogs and cats if eaten, and the rhizomes contain the highest concentration of toxic compounds.

Do they return every year?

Bearded irises are perennial under suitable conditions. Winter survival and repeat flowering depend on cultivar, climate, drainage and care.

What if a rhizome arrives damaged or does not grow?

Publish a clear live-plant guarantee stating the claim window, required photos, planting conditions and remedy.
