How Audacious is one of the most spectacularly colored Siberian iris. Its 5 inch wide slightly ruffled flowers are a combination of red-violet, blue-violet and yellow, with a white wire rim around the falls and white-tipped center petals. The falls also show a pattern of cream-colored dashes. Blooming after German Iris has faded, this Siberian Iris is very beautiful and distinct. Slender stems bear 2 to 5 delicate flowers per terminal head, and its narrow, linear foliage is slightly arching. How Audacious really thrives in moist soils and deer tend to avoid it. An easy-to-grow favorite for planting along the edges of ponds, streams and boggy areas. Hardy in USDA zones 3 to 9. Each offer includes 3 dormant bare root plants
