3 Purple TALL BEARDED IRIS Rhizomes Bulbs

Description: 3 purple tall bearded iris rhizomes. Will dig-up at time of order and shipped with leaves cut back to 6-9" tall to help conserve plant energy when transplanting. Dirt will be knocked off the roots and a wet/damp paper towel will be wrapped around the root bundle to help preserve root and rhizome moisture. I will include an extra rhizome in case one dies. Pictures are from spring 2024. Overall height of mature plants from ground to leaf tip is 32" and from ground to top of flower is 42". I grew the pictured irises from 9 very small transplanted plants (6" apart in a row) summer of 2021. They are in full sun. Kept them watered during the dry summer and fall of 1st year until they became established. Next year 2022, there were one or two flowers. In 2023, they had 10-12 flowers. This year, too many flowers to count. It is time to thin to share with others. Please plant immediately upon arrival. I will furnish planting instructions from a gardening site. Essentially, your planting location should receive lots of sunlight and be well drained. Dig a hole where the rhizome will settle into the ground just below ground level. If planting several iris near each other, point the rhizomes away from each other and space them 18" apart (I planted mine 6" apart with the rhizomes tips pointed at each other and they grew to a clump way faster than I expected so please follow the professional gardeners tips). Spread the roots out around the rhizome and then cover the roots and the rhizome with dirt. Water the plants well.
