APOSTLE GIANT IRIS PERENNIAL 

he Apostle Giant Iris, also known as Neomarica caerulea 'Regina' or Brazilian Iris, is a stunning perennial plant that can add a touch of elegance to any garden. Here are some key details about this plant:

Description:

  • The Apostle Giant Iris features lush, glossy green sword-like foliage that stands erect in clumps, giving an instant tropical feel to the garden  . The flowers are 3-4 inches wide and are a beautiful purple-blue color with intricate patterns of burgundy, yellow, white, and dark purple . The blooms are held high on the plants, just at the tops of the foliage .

Growing Conditions:

  • This plant thrives in full sun to part shade and can be planted in a variety of garden settings  . It prefers well-draining soil and should be watered regularly, especially during the hot summer months . The Apostle Giant Iris is hardy in USDA zones 8-11 .

Care and Maintenance:

  • Regular watering is essential, particularly in full sun locations. The plant should be watered twice a week during the hot summer months . In areas with heavy frost during winter, newly planted Apostle Iris may suffer cold damage. It is recommended to trim off any damaged plants to about 6-12 inches from ground level in early spring after all danger of frost has passed .
  • Fertilizing immediately after trimming will help the plant regrow new foliage quickly .

Special Features:

  • The Apostle Giant Iris is known for its low maintenance and high impact in gardens. It is drought-tolerant once established and resistant to deer . The plant is also salt-tolerant, making it suitable for coastal gardens .
  • It is an excellent choice for borders, containers, and attracting pollinators to the garden
