BLACK TAFFETA

Midseason Bearded Iris

This striking deep violet (black-purple) iris brings bold drama to the garden with its rich, saturated colouring throughout—standards, falls, beard, and hafts all matching in intense violet tone. It's offers a clean, unified look that stands out beautifully in midseason.

At the base of the plant, you’ll also notice its distinctive, purple-based foliage near the rhizome, adding extra visual interest even before bloom. A unique and eye-catching variety perfect for collectors and lovers of dark, elegant irises.

The Iris flowering period has the potential to begin late August and extend into late / early December. To ensure optimal plant health, orders are not dispatched until flowering has concluded, allowing the rhizomes adequate time to regenerate. We anticipate lifting and preparing orders from early February subject to weather conditions. If you live in a hot dry climate, we recommend not receiving your order until March. All rhizomes are professionally trimmed, washed, sanitised and air dried to ensure they are delivered in premium condition. For best establishment, the recommended planting period is February through April.
