28 THE LONGFIELD IRIS FARM 
Siberian Iris 
The Siberian Iris are tall with slender stems and narrow, grass-like foliage. 
Flowers are smaller than the Tall Bearded Iris and have very narrow segments 
making them fine for cut flowers. The plants do well in a moist location as 
well as in any good garden location. They are not benefited by lime. Plant in 
spring or fall.

are as easily handled. The flower stalks are from 4-6 feet tall with very 
attractive sword-like foliage. The flowers last a long time and the buds keep 
opening after cutting. Very effective when grown in large clumps.
