Iris sibirica ‘Drink Your Tea’ has earthy tones of pale apricot, orange-brown, and yellow-gold with yellow veining. Siberian irises have elegant, delicate flowers atop vertical columns of strap-like green foliage that look great all season long. They are tough, long-lived, and disease resistant preferring average to moist soils. Useful for bridging the gap between spring and summer flowering perennials and between tall bearded irises and Japanese irises, making possible a vibrant succession of colour combinations. Part of the Peacock Butterfly series.
