Metal Blue Iris Combo
Looking for a stunning addition to your garden? Check out the Metal Blue Iris Combo from Gardens4you. This unique combination includes three Iris Germanica plants, known for their elegant ruffled blooms.
The Metal Blue Iris features intense deep blue orchid-like flowers, while the Silver Edge Iris boasts beautiful butterfly-like violet blue blooms with silver edges. Together, they create a gorgeous display that will elevate any garden.
With their tall slender stems, these irises add height and elegance to your flower beds. They are perfect for partially shaded gardens, as well as by the pond side or in large patio planters and tubs.
The Metal Blue Iris Combo is delivered as bare roots and requires sun and semi-shade to thrive. To plant them, soak the rhizomes in water for a few hours prior to planting. Choose a sunny spot in well-drained, moisture-retentive soil. If you have heavy clay soils, it's recommended to plant the irises in raised beds to ensure proper drainage.
Planting the Metal Blue Iris Combo is easy. Dig a shallow hole, approximately 10 inches (25cm) in diameter and 4 inches (10cm) deep. Create a ridge of soil down the middle of the hole and place the rhizome on the ridge, spreading the roots downward on each side. Cover the rhizome with soil, leaving the top exposed. Water thoroughly after planting.
At Gardens4you, we offer low-cost, quick delivery direct from the growers. Buy the Metal Blue Iris Combo today and enjoy the beauty of these stunning irises in your garden.

Caring for your Metal Blue Iris Combo
When it comes to caring for your Metal Blue Iris Combo, there are a few things to keep in mind. Although the rhizomes may appear dry, don't be alarmed. Iris rhizomes don't like to be wet, and this dryness won't affect their performance.
Before planting, soak the rhizomes in water for a few hours. This will ensure they are well-hydrated and ready to grow.
Choose a sunny position in your garden for the Metal Blue Iris Combo. They thrive in well-drained, moisture-retentive soil. However, it's important to pay attention to drainage, especially if you have heavy clay soils. In such cases, it's better to plant the irises in raised beds to improve drainage.
To plant the Metal Blue Iris Combo, dig a shallow hole approximately 10 inches (25cm) in diameter and 4 inches (10cm) deep. Create a ridge of soil down the middle of the hole and place the rhizome on the ridge. Spread the roots downward on each side. Cover the rhizome with soil, leaving the top exposed. Water thoroughly after planting.
Once planted, the Metal Blue Iris Combo requires sun and semi-shade to thrive. Water regularly, especially during dry periods. Avoid overwatering as excess moisture can cause the rhizomes to rot.
These irises are low-maintenance and generally resistant to pests and diseases. However, it's always a good idea to keep an eye out for any issues and address them promptly.
With the Metal Blue Iris Combo, you'll enjoy beautiful and delicate ruffled blooms on tall slender stems. Create an eye-catching display in your partially shaded garden or place them by the pond side or in large patio planters and tubs.
