Noted for its tall stature and sweet fragrance, Iris 'Dream Of You' is an impressive Bearded Iris with heavily ruffled whitish-blue standards, elegantly edged with pale yellow ribbon. They float above dark violet-blue falls, paler at their frilly tips and pleasantly contrasting brown shoulders. Its large flowers are held high on sturdy stems and rise elegantly up to 39 inches high (97 cm) atop the lovely sword-shaped foliage which will continue to add interest to the landscape after flowering is over. A charming addition to the late spring garden. 

• Easy to grow, it is deer and rabbit resistant, and quite drought tolerant once established.
• A profuse bloomer, it will bring its glorious and glamorous blooms in late spring or early summer. Please note that bloom times depend very much on the weather.
• Performs best in full sun in humus-rich, medium moisture, well-drained soils. Tolerates light shade but best flowering and disease resistance occur in full sun. Good soil drainage is essential to prevent rot issues.
• Grows from creeping rhizomes which store food produced by the sword-shaped, semi-evergreen leaves and form large clumps over time
• A welcomed addition to herbaceous borders, sunny courtyards, or urban gardens where the sword-like foliage and vibrant color will combine harmoniously with the stones and angular hardscaping. Roses also provide a lovely backdrop to this tall variety.
• The best time to plant bearded irises is July through September. Container-grown iris can be planted in the spring.
• All parts may cause discomfort if ingested. Wear gloves and other protective equipment when handling.
• Toxic to dogs, toxic to cats, toxic to horses.
