Product Description

A dreamy bearded iris in apricot hues, Classic Hues Bearded Iris is sure to be a staple you look forward to seeing year after year. An award–winning orange iris, Classic Hues boasts huge, ruffled flowers with impeccable form. Each orange and apricot bloom is nearly six inches across, and the warm marmalade falls are set off by white patches and tangerine beards. This mid–season bloomer is cold hardy and willing to thrive in adverse conditions such as rocky soil and drought. Not only are the blooms large, the plant is quite tall, reaching about 30 inches at mature height. Iris Germanica 'Classic Hues'
