Experience the beauty of Iris ensata, also known as the Japanese Iris or Japanese Water Iris. This stunning species features reddish-purple flowers that bloom in June and July. It thrives in wet places, including marshes, ditches, and even shallow water. Iris ensata requires acid soil for cultivation and prefers a light, well-drained soil in a sunny position. Native to Korea, China, Central Asia, and Japan, this species is widely cultivated as an ornamental plant. It is highly prized in Japan and has been cultivated and hybridized there for centuries. In the West, it has been intensively hybridized to produce many beautiful new cultivars. Whether you grow them in gardens, parks, or containers in pond margins, these Japanese Irises will surely enhance any landscape with their distinctive beauty.
