Incredibly beautiful German Iris blooms throughout the month of May and can be an amazing addition to any full sun garden. When planted with Peonies these plants can give quite a show as they bloom simultaneously, they can also be especially beautiful when done in mass plantings. Like all Iris the Iris germanica has a spreading habit, look to divide these beauties during the month of August for best results.
