How to Grow and Care for Immortality Tall Bearded Iris:
- Planting: Choose a sunny location with well-drained soil. Plant rhizomes about 1-2 inches deep, ensuring the top of the rhizome is exposed to sunlight. Space the rhizomes 12-18 inches apart to allow for proper air circulation and healthy growth.
- Watering: Water regularly, especially during dry periods, but make sure the soil drains well to prevent waterlogging. Bearded irises prefer slightly drier conditions once established, so avoid excessive moisture around the roots.
- Fertilization: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring when new growth begins. This supports robust growth and encourages an abundance of blooms. Avoid over-fertilizing, as it can lead to weak growth and fewer flowers.
- Maintenance: Deadhead spent blooms to keep the plant looking neat and to promote further blooms. Once the foliage starts to die back in late summer, trim it back to about 3-4 inches above the ground.
- Winter Care: In colder climates, mulch around the base of the plant to protect the rhizomes from freezing temperatures. This helps ensure the plant will return strong and healthy in the following growing season.
