Description: You will receive 4 bareroot fans with rhizomes. Please message me if you have any questions! Thank you! This interesting member of the crested iris group is beardless, but the falls are marked by a fringed crest of white on purple. Japanese roof iris are an example of the great diversity of exotic Iris species coming into the nursery industry with varied colors and flower formations. Though the bloom is large at 6 inches, the standards are shortened and tubular and the falls widespread. The leaves are 15 inches tall, fanned at the base and ribbed. The rhizomes should be spaced10-16 inches apart planted at 1-2 inches deep and will mature at soil level. They prefer a sunny to part-shade location in rich, well-drained soil and benefit from the shelter of a wall with western or southern exposure and winter mulch.Japanese roof iris is also useful in wet areas, such as around ponds and fountains. But they do not require a great deal ofwater so they can be used in rock gardens. As the rhizomes spread, this iris can be used for naturalizing and mass planting. The common name is derived from the historical use on thatched roofs in its native China and Japan. These iris tolerate drought and deer.
