The diversity of bearded irises rivals that of any other perennial grown in temperate climates. For some gardeners, they bring back warm memories of a grandparent's garden; for others, they're a cutting-edge plant with a seemingly endless capacity for producing new forms and patterns. As the manager of Rainbow Iris Farm and co-editor of the Bulletin of the American Iris Society, Kelly Norris is the authority on gardening with bearded irises. His introductory chapters offer tips for successful growth, garden design, plant selection, and "creating" new irises. A Guide to Bearded Irises also provides portraits of the most outstanding plants in each of the six recognized categories, from the dainty miniature dwarf bearded irises to the stately tall bearded irises. A resource section lists specialty nurseries, organizations devoted to bearded irises, and public gardens with notable iris collections.

The word "iris" is derived from the Greek word "rainbow," which is a fitting name for a flower genus with such a diverse spectrum of colour combinations. The Iris genus, which is part of the Iridaceae family, contains over 300 species and thousands of varieties of this spectacular blooming plant. With so many varieties to choose from, you should have no trouble selecting an iris that will grow in your garden, even if it is hot and dry. For generations, the iris has been a rich source of scent compounds and herbal medicines, but today's gardener values them for their consistent spring performance and resilient landscape vigour. Irises are also a lovely way to add a symbol of faith and wisdom to your spring cut flower bouquets. Do you want to plant a beautiful and colourful perennial in your garden? Bearded iris come in every colour of the rainbow, with many exquisite variegated, bicolored, and mixed varieties in between. You should invest in a Bearded Iris. The Bearded Iris, also known as Iris Germanica, is one of the most common perennials and the most popular kind of flower in the Iris genus. This flower, which comes in a variety of colours, forms, and sizes, should be included in each garden. So whether you have a large or little garden, you'll be able to discover the appropriate Bearded Iris. The Greek goddess Iris, Hera's messenger and the goddess of rainbows inspired the name of this perennial. And we believe this name accurately reflects it, given that it is available in a rainbow of magical colours, including red, orange, yellow, blue, purple, brown, white, black, and pink. The Iris genus is a fascinating plant genus to learn about because it is a very old one. It emerged approximately 82 million years ago, allowing the plant to diversify and adapt to various growth situations. As a result, Iris blooms are extremely simple to grow. They can grow in a variety of soils and in both partial and full light. Bearded Tall bearded, middle, short, tiny, and border bearded are only a few of the subcategories of iris. The key distinguishing feature of these subcategories is the size of the plants. This book will provide you with the needed information that you are expected to know to start your Bearded Irises Garden almost effortlessly.
