Reblooming German Iris Bernice's Legacy

New

Reblooming German Iris Bernice's Legacy

Introducing a new Reblooming German Iris that is anything but average. Bernice's Legacy Iris features rich shades of wine red, cinnamon and garnet, all blended together to create one outstanding bloom. Boasting an extra-long bloom time, this rare red rebloomer blesses the garden with its dazzling blooms from August to October. We love a good mixed garden display, but this one would certainly look amazing in groups, showing off its striking colors.
