Iris Sibirica Ginger Twist (Select from Taylor's)
€7.95
Iris sibirica Ginger Twist from the Select by Taylor’s range is a distinctive and elegant summer flowering iris, admired for its warm colouring and delicate fragrance. Flowering from May through to July, this variety produces graceful blooms in soft golden-yellow tones, beautifully marked and flushed with deeper amber and ginger shades. The refined flower form rises above slender, upright foliage, bringing height, movement and subtle scent to borders and naturalistic planting schemes. Reliable and long-lived, Ginger Twist is a superb choice for adding gentle colour and interest to Irish gardens.
Key Features
This iris is selected for its stunning fragrant flowers and refined colouring, offering a softer alternative to brighter irises. It flowers in late spring and early summer, providing seasonal interest as spring bulbs fade. Well suited to Irish growing conditions, it thrives in moist but well-drained soil and performs beautifully in mixed borders and naturalised areas.
Size
Iris sibirica Ginger Twist reaches an approximate flowering height of 70cm, or around 28 inches, making it ideal for mid-border planting.
Useful For
Ideal for garden borders, cottage-style planting schemes, wildlife-friendly gardens and areas with slightly moist soil, where its elegant flowers and fragrance can be enjoyed.
Aftercare
Plant iris rhizomes in autumn or spring in fertile, moisture-retentive but well-drained soil, positioning them in full sun or light shade. Water well during dry periods, particularly in the first growing season. After flowering, remove spent flower stems but allow foliage to die back naturally. Clumps can be lifted and divided every few years to maintain vigour.
