Iris sibirica 'Ever Again'

42.14057541, -87.78535461

Siberian Iris

The cultivar 'Ever Again' is a lovely lavender blue with white streaking on the standards and a very thin white edge on the falls. It stands 36 inches high and blooms in late spring with no fragrance. It may rebloom. The thin, grass like foliage remains a highlight throughout the summer. Siberian irises lack the “beard” of colored hairs at the base of each fall that other iris groups have. Typically these irises grow together in thick clumps which keep out weeds. The classic 'Fleur de Lys' which has been a symbol of royalty throughout history was an adaptation of the iris flower. The name Iris was taken from the Greek goddess of the rainbow to symbolize the many colors of this flower.
