Renown Bearded Iris is a no-bulb reblooming perennial, with a clumping habit and long sword-like foliage that fans upwards. Sturdy central stalks sport large, sweetly fragrant stark white flowers with slight yellow throats in early summer and again in late summer. Prefers partial sun and rich, moist to wet well-drained soils.
