Mango Entrée German Bearded Iris features big apricot blooms with faint veining along its tangerine falls. The heavily ruffled flowers sit on top of long, straight, green stems. This bicolor bearded iris adds height, brilliant color, and texture to beds, borders, and cut flower bouquets. The fragrant flowers of Iris germanica 'Mango Entrée' also attract butterflies and support the bees.
Originating from warmer areas in the Mediterranean and southeast Europe, this tall bearded iris is drought resistant and deer and rabbit resistant. It grows vigorously and is cold hardy in zones 3-9. With minimal problems, an amateur gardener with little spare time could not ask for an easier perennial.
Mango Entrée German Bearded Iris Care
To encourage the best blooming, choose a planting location in full sun. Plant Mango Entrée German Bearded Iris in moist, well-draining soil with a pH of 6.5 to 7.5. This selection does not like wet feet and is susceptible to root rot; amend poorly draining soil with compost. Water when the top one to two inches of soil are dry. Provide approximately one inch of water weekly and a low-nitrogen fertilizer twice a year, once before flowering and another shortly after it has concluded.
Deadhead old, withered blooms as soon as they die to encourage more buds to open. At the end of the flowering season, cut back brown foliage to one or two inches high. Divide rhizomes during midsummer every 3 to 5 years and replant elsewhere in the garden.
Mango Entrée German Bearded Iris Spacing
Space each plant 12 to 24 inches apart. To magnify color, plant this iris in groups of 3 to 5. Select companion plants including roses, delphinium, alliums, lupine, lilies, and salvia. Make striking bouquets by adding this cut flower to belles of Ireland, lilies, hydrangea, alliums, and roses.

Plant Addicts Warranty - 1 Year (Extra Purchase Required)
We encourage all plant lovers to purchase the Plant Addicts Warranty, whether you're a new gardener or an expert. There are many variables outside of anyone's control that can cause a plant to die. Hungry animals, drought, poor soil conditions, over watering, diseases & pests are all good examples of what can cause plants to die. The Plant Addicts Warranty is a 1 year warranty protecting you from all of the unknowns and will replace your plant if something were to happen to it.
The warranty is purchased on a per plant basis and must be purchased at the same time as the plant(s). We will cover 100% of the price of the plant, but the warranty does not cover shipping costs. SImply let us know if your plant has died within 1 year of receiving it and we will get you a new one shipped out as soon as possible (depending on the time of the year and availability). We may ask for photos for documentation purposes, but we try to make the process as easy as possible.

Plant Shipping
Below are some factors we consider when determining when to ship the plants depending on the timing of the order.
Winter to Early Spring
We ship only when it's warm enough to plant in your growing zone.
Sometimes plants aren't completely ready to sell and ship in early spring. We will wait until the plants are ready before shipping so you don't get a subpar product.
For Southern plants we will be able to ship much earlier than plants coming from our northern nursery.
Summer
If there is extreme heat we may delay shipping for a week or several weeks.
We review what areas the plants are traveling through as well as your location.
Fall into Winter
We’ll ship plants out all the way up to the end of the fall planting season!
Winter
Get your order in early to reserve your plants for Spring planting!
Once your plant is shipped you’ll receive an automated email with tracking information.
