Introducing the Iris bloudowii Yellow Mongolian Iris, a stunning addition to any garden. With its thick, branched rhizome and falcate leaves in a rosette, this plant grows up to 20-30 cm in height. The flowering stem bears 2-4 leaves and 2 large brown-yellow flowers with eye-catching violet veins. Blooming from early spring to late autumn, these lovely flowers can be seen in May, with fruits appearing in June. This iris can be propagated by division or by seed and prefers semi-shaded, moist but well-drained soil during the vegetative period. It is well-suited for the rock garden and group planting due to its hardiness in zones 4. Originating from Siberia, Central Asia, Far East, northern China and Mongolia, this plant can be found thriving in meadows, valleys, forest margins, and along streams in the alpine zone. Don't miss your chance to add the Iris bloudowii Yellow Mongolian Iris to your garden collection.
