‘Hemstitched’ is a beautiful plicata style bearded iris with icy white to ivory petals edged and veined with lilac blue with white beards. Blooms in the early midseason and reblooms in late summer or fall. 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.
