Iris TB ‘Carnival of Color’

Iris 'Carnival of Color' offers white, gold, tan-brown, and warm peach flowers accented with purple with orange beards.

‘Carnival of Color’ offers white blending into gold with tones of tan-brown and warm peach accented with purple radiating from orange beards. The flowers bloom in the early to mid season on 35 inch stems. Fragrant. Tall Bearded (TB) irises, previously known as Iris germanica, have greyish strap-like, pointed leaves from fleshy rhizomes and tall stems of gorgeous, often fragrant, flowers that come in every colour of the rainbow. 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.
