Iris germanica - Superstition, 1 Pack

Iris germanica - Superstition

A spellbinding tall‑bearded iris, ‘Superstition’ presents intensely dark purple‑black blooms so deep they appear nearly black, highlighted by subtle maroon tones and striking blue‑purple beards. Awarded the prestigious RHS Award of Garden Merit for its visual impact, it bears generously ruffled petals on well‑branched stems with 8–10 buds per stem for a dramatic mid‑ to late‑spring display lasting about three weeks. Standing at approximately 89 cm (35 in) tall, its erect, sword‑shaped glaucous‑green foliage forms neat clumps beneath blooms, rising to ~60 cm (24 in) wide. This hardy, low‑maintenance beauty is fragrant, deer‑ and rabbit‑resistant, drought-tolerant once established, and thrives in full sun within well-drained soil.
