Nursery contributed plant descriptions

Iris sibirica 'Uncorked' has unique flowers in shades of golden yellow, sky blue, and purple-black with detailed veining. Siberian irises have elegant, delicate flowers atop vertical columns of strap-like green foliage that look great all season long. They are tough, love-lived, and disease resistant preferring average to moist soils. Useful for bridging the gap between spring and summer flowering perennials and between tall bearded irises and Japanese irises, making possible a vibrant succession of colour combinations.
