They are members of the Iris family, which includes many different species, hybrids, and cultivated varieties. Gardeners and flora aficionados all over the world hold a deep appreciation for these flowers due to their unique appearance, robust growth, and relative ease of upkeep.

Rhizomes, which are thick underground stems, are where these plants get their start. Multiple, fan-shaped leaves and 2- to 4-foot-tall flower stalks are produced by the rhizomes. There are several buds on each stalk, and as they open, the flowers are gorgeous both in the garden and in vases. Bearded irises have earned a reputation for toughness and versatility. They are well-suited to a wide range of environments, from cool temperate zones to warmer, more Mediterranean ones. They require little care, and once they're established, they can even survive drought. Because of their resilience and adaptability, they can be planted in both ground-level gardens and in containers. The cultivation of these stunning blooms has a long and storied history, with written evidence of its existence extending back thousands of years. They have long been connected with the upper classes of society, and have been prized by cultures as diverse as the ancient Egyptians. Breeders have created innumerable cultivars and hybrids throughout the years, greatly increasing gardeners' options in terms of colour, shape, and bloom period.
