Iris Siberian Over In Gloryland #1

Common Name: Siberian Iris

Siberian Iris are a welcome sight in early summer, and ‘Over in Gloryland’ is an especially showy selection. 5″ wide, deep blue-purple standards and falls have a light yellow and cream blaze with blue-purple veining.

Siberian irises are haled for their elegant, delicate flowers and disease resistance. They perform admirably in the sunny to partially shady garden but need plenty of water throughout the season to continue looking their best. In naturalized settings, they are particularly effective around water features. They can also be grown under Black Walnut trees since they are not affected by juglone. Siberian Irises bloom before Japanese Irises but after Tall Bearded Irises.
