Champagne Elegance Bearded Iris is a reblooming perennial Iris with no bulb, spreading with rhizomes instead and forming a clumping habit. Its long sword-like foliage fans upwards and sturdy stalks that hold the flower heads grow from the center of the plant. The large fragrant flowers have ruffle white standards with apricot-peachy colored falls and bloom first in mid spring and again in early summer. Prefers partial sun and rich, moist to wet well-drained soils.
