Bearded Iris 'Old Purple'
Deep Purple Elegance
In stock
This graceful perennial produces upright, sword-like foliage from which elegant blooms emerge in early to mid-spring. The rich, velvety purple flowers with delicate markings create a striking contrast against the fresh green leaves, offering a refined and dramatic display in garden borders, rockeries, or mixed plantings.
Its compact habit makes it suitable for smaller spaces or as a feature at the front of beds. The flowers are long-lasting and add vertical interest, complementing other spring-flowering perennials or early-season bulbs.
Thriving in full sun, it prefers well-drained soil and benefits from regular watering during establishment. Once settled, it is hardy and relatively low maintenance, requiring minimal care beyond removing spent flower stalks to maintain a tidy appearance.
Ideal for gardeners seeking bold spring colour, structured form, and dependable performance, this perennial brings sophistication, vibrant hue, and enduring charm to sunny garden locations.
