Iris TB ‘Side Line’

Iris 'Side Line' offers orange-gold flowers with a light red infusion in in the standards and dramatic deep red stripes in the falls.

‘Side Line’ offers orange-gold flowers, the ruffled standards with a light infusion of red and the falls dramatically striped with deep red around bright orange beards. Blooms in the early mid season. 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.
