Flowering Months

The rich violet-purple blooms of Iris ensata sit atop tall stems which rise up from clumps of stiff, upright foliage. Japanese Water Iris are perfect for planting in bog gardens or at the margins of a pond or stream. These hardy perennials are undemanding and easy to grow, making a fabulous summer display. Height: 90cm (36"). Spread: 30cm (12"). Planting depth: Zone 1 in reliably moist or boggy soil.

Plant height and spread is seasonal therefore we list by pot size rather than a defined plant size. The height and spread of the plant delivered will vary depending on the season, meaning arrival images are an indication only.

How to Grow

Japanese iris plants thrive in moist, acid or neutral soil in a sunny or semi-shaded position. These moisture loving iris require a rich, fertile soil which has had plenty of well rotted organic matter added into the soil prior to planting. Avoid submerging iris ensata in ponds and streams as this may cause them to rot. Instead, plant them in moist ground at the water's edge, or in damp borders and bog gardens with their roots in the shade and their heads in the sun.

More Info

Iris ensata require reliably moist soil. Water if necessary to prevent the soil from drying out. Overcrowded clumps of Japanese iris plants can be divided in autumn after flowering. Mulch around the base of iris ensata in spring to help retain moisture at their roots.

Caution: irritant to skin and eyes, harmful if eaten.
