Notes

'NR12006' iris (Iris 'NR12006') is a bulb for borders, cut flowers, containers, and cottage gardens. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full sun and average to moist soil. Deer and rabbits tend to browse other plants first. It grows about 30 inches tall and bears violet-blue blooms in early to late spring and again in early to late summer. Edward Bot bred it.

Pairs well with Amsonia, Feather reed grass, and Ornamental onion.
