Iris germanica DuoIris germanicaBearded Iris

Iris germanica, also known as Bearded Iris, are some of the earliest flowering perennials which provide sumptuous flowers in hot summer borders. Their blue-green, sword-like foliage also provides interest and good contrast with softer mounds of other perennials, long after the flowers have faded.

Iris germanica ‘Duo’ comprises 1 of each of the following varieties:

• Iris germanica ‘Miles Ahead’ - typically showy blooms with generously ruffled petals. The 16 x 11cm blooms are described as ‘giant’ sized.  The standards are ivory white complemented by white falls with a broad border of mottled blue. Height: 90cm (35in). Spread: 30cm (12in).
• Iris germanica ‘Rose de Perse’ - standards are pure pink, the falls pale pink with a rosy-purple border set off with delicate pink veining and coral red beards.  Height: 90cm (35in). Spread:30cm (12in).

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.
