Bearded Iris: In Full Bloom
Here are two of the four flowers in full bloom! Aren't they magnificent?! In fact, Steve and I are going to buy an assortment of other colors to plant this fall so we have more lovely flowers to enjoy next spring! :)
Irises grow from a kind of bulb called a rhizome, and they look a lot like a ginger root, which is also a rhizome. Many flowers which bloom in the spring or early summer are planted in the fall. This is important because the bulb, rhizome, or corm must have a "resting" period of cold temperatures before they will grow. In the springtime, the soil begins to warm up and the bulbs, rhizomes and corms "wake up" and begin to send a stem up and roots down!
If you would like to see an amazing assortment of Bearded Iris in a zillion different colors, I found a wonderful farm in California which has an endless variety to see! :)
