How to Grow and Care for Tumalo Sunset Tall Bearded Iris:
- Planting: Choose a sunny spot with well-drained soil for the best growth. Plant the 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 the iris regularly, especially during dry spells, but ensure the soil drains well to avoid waterlogging. While the Tumalo Sunset iris is somewhat drought-tolerant once established, consistent watering promotes better bloom production.
- Fertilization: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring when new growth begins. This encourages strong growth and abundant flowers. Avoid over-fertilizing, as too much nitrogen can result in weak stems and fewer blooms.
- Maintenance: Deadhead spent flowers regularly to encourage additional blooming and keep the plant looking tidy. Once the foliage dies back in late summer, trim it to around 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 ensures the iris returns strong and healthy in the next growing season.
Benefits of Growing Tumalo Sunset Tall Bearded Iris:
- Vibrant Color Palette: The sunset-inspired gradient of peach, gold, and red brings warmth and brightness to your garden, creating a dynamic and eye-catching display.
- Tall and Elegant: Standing at 32-36 inches, this iris adds impressive height, structure, and sophistication to flower beds, borders, or as a statement piece in landscapes.
- Low Maintenance: Once established, the Tumalo Sunset iris is easy to care for, drought-tolerant, and disease-resistant, making it a fantastic choice for gardeners looking for beauty with minimal upkeep.
- Pollinator-Friendly: The fragrant blooms attract bees, butterflies, and other pollinators, enriching your garden’s ecosystem.
- Perennial Blooms: As a perennial, the Tumalo Sunset Tall Bearded Iris will return every year, providing reliable color and beauty with minimal maintenance.
