The bearded iris list
TALL bearded irises, which usually carry TBI after their name, are available to plant now. Doing so will give them a wonderful start and probably enable them to flower towards the end of May. Normally reaching three feet high or slightly more, they are the last group of bearded irises to flower. These sun-loving plants flower according to height: the Miniature Dwarfs (between two and eight inches high) begin in early April and the rest follow on.
The most popular TBI sell out early, although you’ll get another bite of the cherry in late summer, when nurseries divide their field-grown plants
