Tall Bearded Iris - Champagne Elegance

Creamy white standards, faintly flushed with blush, rise above softly ruffled falls blending buff, apricot, and pale peach. A white beard tipped in warm amber-yellow completes its quiet, romantic colouring.

A prolific bloomer, Champagne Elegance produces approximately seven to ten buds per stalk and carries a sweet orange-blossom fragrance. It is also known to rebloom later in the season under favourable conditions, offering the possibility of a second flush after its main spring display. Rebloom can vary with climate, plant maturity, and growing conditions and is not guaranteed — particularly in colder regions.

Its versatile colouring has made Champagne Elegance a favourite with our florist customers — every stem from this year’s crop found its way into an arrangement.

This hardy perennial returns year after year, forming a larger and more impressive clump as it becomes established.
