The diversity of bearded irises rivals that of any other perennial grown in temperate climates. For some gardeners, they bring back warm memories of a grandparent's garden; for others, they're a cutting-edge plant with a seemingly endless capacity for producing new forms and patterns. As the manager of Rainbow Iris Farm and co-editor of the Bulletin of the American Iris Society, Kelly Norris is the authority on gardening with bearded irises. His introductory chapters offer tips for successful growth, garden design, plant selection, and "creating" new irises. A Guide to Bearded Irises also provides portraits of the most outstanding plants in each of the six recognized categories, from the dainty miniature dwarf bearded irises to the stately tall bearded irises. A resource section lists specialty nurseries, organizations devoted to bearded irises, and public gardens with notable iris collections.

Excerpt from Tall Bearded Iris (Fleur-De-Lis): What, When, Where and How to Plant and Subsequent Care Fleur-de-lis Blue of the skies, Pink of sunrise, Red of the sunset-glow, Purple so bold, Yellow of gold, White of the driven snow; Solid and dashed, Veined and splashed, Mottled and reticulated, Suffused, o'erlaid, Bordered and rayed - All colors and shades collated. Wondrous flower of song and story, Earthly rival of the rainbow's glory, Elegant in all its lines As the pride of tropic climes, Light and airy as the fleecy cloud That can scarce the sunbeams shroud, Hardy, contented where'er it may be, Sunshine or shadow, in garden or lea, Fragrant, stately but replete with grace - Flora's lovers should all give it place.
