Iris sibirica‘Drink Your Tea’ - From breeders Jan Sacks and Marty Schafer comes this most unusually beautiful Siberian Iris. Light apricot styles and standards are flanked by orange-brown falls. Lots of flowering stalks on this complex hybrid. Though usually sporting fewer 'Drink Your Tea' harbors the genetic ability to produce up to as many as five buds per stalk. As is typical of Siberian Iris the narrow green to blue-green leaf lances remain attractive all the growing season long. Full sun in fertile, draining soil. Established, pot grown from division.

Cultural requirements are simple but must be adhered to or plants are likely to languish, not perform and perhaps disappear from their special place in the garden. All of the cultivars we offer require a very nutritious loam rich in organic material preferably with a blend of composted animal manure and worm castings. Full sun exposure with your Siberian Iris in this deep moisture retaining soil will spell success. Please don't attempt circumvention with salt-based chemical fertilizers. Give them the rich, organic soil they require.
