Perennial Combinations, Plant Combinations, Flowerbeds Ideas, Spring Borders, Summer Borders
Diva of the late spring garden, Bearded Irises grow and show well in any garden setting that meets their cultural needs. Pairing them with companion plants such as perennials, flower bulbs or even ornamental grasses, accent each other in shape, texture, height or color and enhance the beauty of your borders.
This plant combination, in shades of seashell pink and purple, includes 4 fabulous Tall Bearded Irises with different flowering seasons for a longer display, ‘Discovered Treasure’ (Midseason), ‘Magharee’ (Late Midseason), ‘Florentine Silk’ (Late Midseason) and ‘June Krauss’ (Late Season), the architectural white Allium ‘Mt Blanc’ and Lupine ‘The Chatelaine’, the violet-blue blossoms of Geranium x magnificum and Salvia ‘Caradonna’, the luminous Oriental Poppy ‘Prinzessin Victoria Louise’ and the delightfully fragrant English Rose ‘Sharifa Asma’.
Adding splashes of color in your late spring garden, this pairing will lengthen your bloom display and provide weeks of color until late summer.
Most plants have received prestigious awards and make excellent fresh cut flowers that can be pleasantly enjoyed at home!
