The Hemstitched Tall Bearded Iris is a stunning perennial known for its elegant, intricately stitched-looking petals and beautiful color combination. Its large, ruffled blooms feature soft lavender-pink standards, which gradually deepen into a rich, deep rose-colored fall with subtle purple undertones. The iris is complemented by a striking golden-yellow beard that adds a touch of brightness and contrast to the delicate hues. Standing at 36-40 inches tall, Hemstitched blooms in late spring to early summer, offering a graceful and sophisticated floral display with its unique texture and color palette.

How to Grow and Care for Hemstitched Tall Bearded Iris
- Planting: Choose a sunny location with well-draining soil. Plant rhizomes with their tops just above the soil surface, spacing them 12-18 inches apart to allow for proper air circulation and healthy growth.
- Watering: Water moderately, ensuring the soil remains moist but not soggy. Be careful not to overwater, as this can cause rhizome rot.
- Fertilizing: Apply a balanced, low-nitrogen fertilizer in early spring to promote healthy foliage and vibrant blooms. Fertilize again after blooming to encourage continued growth.
- Maintenance: Remove spent flowers to encourage additional blooms, and trim back foliage in late fall. Divide rhizomes every 3-4 years to maintain plant health and ensure consistent blooming.
