Iris Autumn Rose is a tall bearded iris with soft pink flowers and a gentle fragrance. It flowers in late spring to early summer and may bloom again later in the season. The upright blooms rise above fans of green, sword-shaped leaves. This gives the plant a neat, strong look in a sunny border.
This iris is a good choice for mixed beds, cottage-style planting, and cutting gardens. Its reblooming habit adds a longer season of interest than many other irises. The flowers bring soft color, and the clump-forming growth is easy to place among other perennials. It grows best in open, well-drained soil and a bright position.
Care is simple. Remove spent flowers and old stems after blooming, and divide crowded rhizomes every few years to keep plants strong. Watch for iris borers, slugs, snails, leaf spot, and soft rot, especially where air flow is poor. With basic care, this iris stays reliable and striking in the garden.
