A stunning Iris for the perennial garden, or for naturalizing! Iris sibirica has been naturalized in various states of North America and is considered vulnerable or rare in many countries. It is commonly used as an ornamental plant in perennial gardens. In our gardens, we have this Iris located in both wet soils where they traditionally thrive, and also in an area with regular soil that sometimes gets dry, and they seem to perform surprisingly well also. It prefers full sun, but can tolerate part shade. It is hardy in zones 2-8, and if the plants are mulched in winter they can withstand zone 1. They are sturdy plants and do not need to be staked.

Occasionally white flowers can be found, though these are the seeds for the cobalt-blue flowers.
