Siberian Iris
Plant Type:
GRASSES & GRASS-LIKE PLANTSIris sibirica 'Just Cruising' - Lovely bright, light yellow gently undulating falls are topped with pristine white ruffled styles sporting pastel yellow midribs. Another bonus is that this Siberian Iris emits sweet fragrance. It is vibrant and will for an impressive clump. Another most worthy Marty Shafer / Jan Sacks introduction. Fully to mostly sunny siting in fertile, moisture retaining soil. Early-Middle. 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.

Genus Overview: Iris
Common Name: Iris
From small woodland species and tiny forms happy in a sunny trough to those that stretch to one's waist and higher irises are among the most beautiful and unique of herbaceous perennials. They come in an amazing array of colors with fans of foliage that provide textural contrast to other garden denizens long after the flowers have passed. None that we carry are especially common. All are beautiful in the full sun border with many adaptable to pond's edge. They want a home! Pot grown division unless otherwise indicated.
