Iris Superstition | 18 pce

Iris 'Superstition' is a captivating tall bearded iris that brings dramatic elegance to any landscape with its deep purple to nearly black ruffled blooms. Standing approximately 36 inches tall, this award-winning variety creates a striking vertical accent in garden designs. The lightly fragrant flowers emerge in mid to late spring, rising majestically above sword-like foliage that maintains its attractive appearance throughout the growing season.

Distinctive Features and Benefits

This exceptional iris variety offers numerous advantages for landscape professionals and garden centers:

• Luxurious deep purple to black velvety blooms that create a sophisticated focal point
• Impressive 36-inch height with sturdy stems that resist toppling in wind or rain
• Drought-tolerant once established, reducing maintenance and irrigation requirements
• Versatile hardiness across USDA zones 3-9, suitable for projects throughout most of the continental US
• Award-winning performance, having received both Honorable Mention (1978) and Award of Merit (1981)
• Deer-resistant qualities that maintain landscape integrity in suburban and rural settings

The sword-shaped, gray-green foliage provides structural interest even when the plant isn't in bloom, making it a valuable addition to perennial borders and mixed plantings.

Planting and Growing Information

For optimal results, plant Iris 'Superstition' in full sun locations with well-drained, loamy soil. The rhizomes should be positioned just below the soil surface, with the top slightly exposed. This iris performs best in neutral to slightly alkaline soil conditions. Apply fertilizer in early spring and again after flowering to promote robust growth. Division every 3-4 years in August helps maintain plant vigor and flowering performance. Expect spectacular blooms in mid to late spring.
