Bearded Iris 'Champagne and Strawberries'

Developed by Hall of Fame hybridizer Barry Blyth, 'Champagne and Strawberries' is a standout result of his career-long dedication to refining peach and salmon tones in bearded irises. This tall variety reaches an impressive 38 inches, making it a reliable structural anchor for the mid-season garden. The blooms feature a complex palette of blended peach standards atop creamy bases, while the falls are washed in rose and finished with a warm tangerine beard. Beyond its visual charm, this iris is a hardy performer, offering deer resistance and a subtle, sweet fragrance that lingers in the garden from mid-to-late spring.

To ensure success in your perennial beds or mixed borders, plant these irises in well-drained soil with a neutral to slightly alkaline pH. They thrive in locations ranging from full sun to partial shade and are particularly well-suited for waterwise landscapes once they have established their roots. 'Champagne and Strawberries' provides a sophisticated mix of ivory, bronze, and copper hues that bridge the gap between early spring bulbs and the full heat of summer, all while requiring very little maintenance from the gardener.
