✂️ Care

Regularly remove spent flowers to encourage prolonged blooming. A light trim in late winter will remove damaged foliage and rejuvenate the plant. Keep the soil slightly moist during the growing season.

Few interventions are needed beyond regular watering and division every three to four years to revitalize the clumps.

Iris sibirica 'Swans in Flight' is a spectacular perennial ideal for cottage gardens, mixed borders, and semi-moist areas.
