Description

Selected for its increased hardiness (USDA Zone 7a-10b) and flower power, the Eco Easter is an easy-to-grow evergreen Iris that produces abundant sprays of absolutely beautiful and dainty lavender-blue flowers with a yellow throat and purple markings on the fringed petals. Plants grow to maybe 15 inches tall and spread by underground rhizomes to form a dense patch of attractive foliage consisting of strap-like green leaves. A true beauty, unlike many iris that prefer the sun, this one prefers life on the shady side.

Landscape & Garden Uses

Growing 12 to 15 inches tall and spreading 2 feet or more, the Eco Easter is a spreading Iris that is ideal for use in groupings or as a groundcover in shady garden beds and landscape borders. Also suitable for containers. A fine addition to Asian theme gardens, butterfly gardens, cottage gardens, perennial gardens, rock gardens, and blue color theme gardens.

Suggested Spacing: 18 inches apart for mass plantings; 6 feet or more for space between plants

Note: For our customers who live and garden north of USDA Plant Hardiness Zone 8b, where the White African Iris is not reliably winter hardy, you’ll be happy to know it can be grown in containers that can be brought indoors during winter and placed back outside when temperatures warm up in spring.

Growing Preferences

The Eco Easter Fringed Iris is easy to grow in most any moist but well-drained soil of average fertility and shade to dappled shade. Morning sun is okay. They don’t mind poor soils, but will not grow in salty soils. Once established, they tolerate dry soil conditions, but do best with in a moist soil. Maintenance is minimal.

Plant Long & Prosper!
