*** SOLD OUT *** The bearded Iris 'Immortality' blooms in the early spring and grows best in rich, well-drained soil. Bearded Iris prefer drier soil, unlike their water-loving cousins. Fertilize in spring and divide in mid to late summer.
An excellent cut flower, use 'Immortality' in the middle of a border or in a mass by themselves. Deer resistant.

Irises prefer a sunny site but tolerate partial shade. They are best grown on water edges in damp, rich, acidic soil with abundant moisture during the growing season. Blooms appear in mid-summer after bearded and Siberian irises. Japanese Iris make a showy presence in the garden and are excellent cut flowers.
