Iris SDB ‘Androgyny’
Iris 'Androgyny' has dusky pink to tan petals highlighted with darker lavender veins and incredible blue beards.
‘Androgyny’ is stunning and unique with dusky pink to tan petals highlighted with darker lavender veins and set off with incredible blue beards. Blooms in very early season on nine inch stems. The standard dwarf bearded iris (SDB) are hybrids involving Iris pumila and other species and hybrids. They look like the classic tall bearded iris but in miniature and often with the flowers near the top of the bluish straplike leaves to heights of 8-16 inches. Use them at the front of the border, along pathways, and in rockeries in full sun in average to dry situations. Divide every two to three years (or when clumps become congested and flowering decreases) just after blooming. Trim the foliage back to a third and plant the rhizomes at or just below soil level. Deer and rabbit resistant.
