Immortality Bearded Iris Plant

Iris germanica 'Immortality' is a cloud-colored spring bloomer that is fragrant and showy. This reblooming plant offers ruffled white petals encased with a delicate yellow throat. Bearded irises are a great fit for climates without harsh winters, since they don't require cold months to produce spring blooms. Extremely drought tolerant, bearded irises need well-drained soil and a full-sun to mostly sunny location.

Excellent companion plants for Bearded Iris include: Peonies, Alliums, Catmint, Salvia, Dianthus, Coreopsis, Lamb's Ear, Sedum, Lavender, and Daylilies.

Iris Plant Care Instructions: Irises are relatively low-maintenance plants; however, these actions will help keep them healthy and thriving. Remove spent flowers by cutting them back to the first set of healthy leaves. Any leaves that develop brown tips during the summer can be trimmed just below the browning area - this is a natural process for irises. Avoid mulching around the rhizomes to prevent rot. Regularly remove dead or dried leaves from the plant. In early fall, cut back all foliage to ground level. Divide iris plants every 3-5 years, typically about 4-6 weeks after flowering. Spring is the best time to apply a single application of balanced fertilizer.
