The Louisiana Iris Collection, 'Iris', is a great choice for those wet boggy garden areas that need a burst of color. This collection of our beautiful Louisiana Iris includes 2 roots, 1 each of 'Bold Pretender' and 'Black Gamecock'. The diversity of colors from this Collection will create a stunning effect in your garden, and the very bold and dramatic blooms will be a real talking point. Native to Louisiana and southeastern US wetland, they make perfect companions to the tall bearded Iris. Grows in water, at the edge of a pond or a well watered garden in full sun or partial shade. They love moisture, so give them the same conditions you'd give impatiens or astilbes, with perhaps a little more sun, and they'll do well for you. Gather the large blooms for an extraordinary indoor arrangement.
