Siberian Iris (Iris sibirica) 
The Siberian Iris have much smaller flowers 
than Bearded and Oriental Iris but what they 
lack in size they make up in grace of flower and 
foliage. They are very hardy and grow well in 
almost any kind of soil, though a moist location 
is preferred. Well adapted for naturalizing along 
streams or ponds, among shrubs or in perennial 
plantings.

tall—30 inches high. It is the best of the 
entire lot of dark blue Siberian Iris and was
