Bearded Iris - Gilt-Edged Bond

Known for their tall, elegant blooms and ruffled petals, Bearded Irises bring a dramatic flair to any garden. These hardy perennials showcase a stunning variety of colors—from deep purples and rich blues to soft pastels and vibrant yellows—making them a favorite for creating beautiful, eye-catching displays.

Each stem holds multiple blooms with distinctive “beards” on their falls, giving them unique texture and charm. Bearded Irises are low-maintenance and ideal for borders, garden beds, and cut flower arrangements. They bloom in late spring and are known to re-bloom in certain varieties, bringing continuous beauty to your landscape.
