Description

A treat for purple lovers, Iris ‘Autumn Encore’ offers richly coloured and patterned flowers plus an extended blooming season with a second flush in autumn. A tall Bearded Iris, Iris ‘Autumn Encore’ has royal purple standards with a white base. The falls have a white ground with royal purple to maroon veining and stippling that spreads from the margins of the ruffled petals. Each fall has a distinctive purple stripe down the centre. The beard is white at the base tipped with yellow. Well branched stems carry prolific flowers in May/June plus a second flush in September.

This majestic bearded iris provides a strong focal point in sunny borders and even when not in flower its blue-green, sword-shaped foliage brings a bold vertical accent to planting schemes. The sumptuous blooms are also perfect for adding drama to summer bouquets, making them a superb choice for the cut flower garden. Height: 90cm (35in). Spread: 40cm (16in).

How to Grow
A sunny position in well drained soil is ideal for growing iris. Bearded iris prefer an open position where the rhizomes can bake in the summer sun, without being shaded by other plants. These perennials require a very free draining soil, so amend heavy clay soils with plenty of grit and well rotted manure prior to planting. When planting Iris, ensure that the rhizome sits just at the soil surface as they are prone to rot if planted too deeply.
More Info
Overcrowded clumps of bearded Iris plants can be divided in late summer after flowering. Avoid mulching the rhizomes to prevent them from rotting over winter. Caution: irritant to skin and eyes, harmful if eaten.
