Bearded irises are so-named after the 'beards' on each of the falls (lower petals) of the flowers. Tall bearded irises grow to a height of around 70cm or more, and flower in late-spring and early summer.
Iris 'Celebration Song' grows to a height of 70cm. Flowers have apricot-pink standards and blue falls with orange beards. It's perfect for growing in a mixed herbaceous border, and makes an excellent cut flower.
For best results grow Iris 'Celebration Song' in well-drained soil in full sun, and mulch with well-rotted manure or garden compost annually.
