German Iris always create a stir in the garden but ‘Mother Earth’ packs a double wallop with big, ruffled flowers sporting light lavender standards and deeper lavender falls starting in late May along with a strong, delicious aroma that is irresistible. Like all German Iris, ‘Mother Earth’ will dominate the garden in early to mid-May as its spectacular flowers rise above wide, flat lance-like foliage and, like all Iris, this selection loves a well-drained, sunny location where it can establish large, long-lived clumps that will bloom profusely each year and provide you with all the cut flowers you need for your home. Add in an early summer rebloom, unusual for most German Iris, and you have an Iris that you’ll learn to love.
