Notes
'Harmony' reticulated iris (Iris reticulata 'Harmony') is a bulb for borders, rock gardens, containers, and naturalized drifts. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and dry to moist soil of most types. The standards are pale violet, and the falls are bronze-yellow with an orange blotch. Deer and rabbits tend to pass it by. Bees visit the fragrant blooms.
Pairs well with Foam flower, Japanese forest grass, and Christmas fern.
