Bearded irises have 'beards' on each of the falls (lower petals) of the flowers. Iris 'Aigue Marine' bears pale purple standards and falls with a soft yellow beard. It's ideal for growing in a sunny mixed herbaceous border or gravel garden, and makes an excellent cut flower.
For best results grow Iris 'Aigue Marine' in well-drained soil in full sun, and mulch with well-rotted manure or garden compost annually.
