The Sugar Blues Reblooming Bearded Iris has the unmistakable form of an Iris with both upright and drooping petals that all have a gentle ruffle. The petals are a deep blue and feature subtle yellow and white beards. This beauty blooms in the spring and reblooms again during the late summer so that you can enjoy the striking and sweet-smelling flowers twice. The fan-shaped flowers are perched on top of tall stems and are surrounded by green, sword-shaped leaves.

Feature this plant in borders, beds, or mass plantings. The flowers will attract pollinators, like bees, but the plants are generally deer and rabbit resistant. This cold-hardy Iris is easy to maintain and is a perennial in USDA zones 3 through 9. The Sugar Blues Reblooming Bearded Iris can handle most conditions as long as it is grown in well-draining soil because soggy roots are the one thing it cannot take on.

Sugar Blues Reblooming Bearded Iris Care

This Iris needs full sun to partial shade and requires at least 5 hours of sunlight. The Sugar Blues Reblooming Bearded Iris is not very picky about the soil type, but the soil must promote drainage. Water weekly or when the top couple of inches of soil dries out. Feed the plant using a 10-10-10 or 6-10-10 fertilizer in the early spring and again during the midsummer after the first bloom cycle is complete.

Deadhead the plant to help it prepare for the second flush of flowers. Remove dead growth at any time, but all growth can be trimmed back to about six inches in the fall. Routinely divide the plants every few years to prevent overcrowding and decrease the risk of certain pests.

Sugar Blues Reblooming Bearded Iris Spacing

The Sugar Blues Reblooming Bearded Iris will reach 32 to 38 inches tall and spread 12 to 24 inches. Plants can be spaced 12 to 22 inches apart to create a full, mass planting or give the Irises more room so they can gradually fill in.

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.

Guarantee and Warranty

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.
