IrisUmbria.it Online Store

You can browse irises by name, size, colour group, flowering time, style, or qualities (such as prizewinning, perfumed, reblooming irises, and historic irises). You can also buy our virgin olive oil (collection only) and view our holiday rentals. Please note that for most of our irises there are (subject to availability) significant discounts if you order 3 or 5 of the same variety in the same order.

Important notice! We supply irises as bare root rhizomes which are dug from the field to your order and therefore they can only be delivered during the lifting season, in September-October each year, and there is a cut off date for orders after which any orders will be suppled the following year. For delivery in 2026, we are accepting orders up until 18 October 2026, inclusive, for orders destined for Italy and the EU, and 20 September 2026 for orders destined for the UK. Orders placed after those dates will not be delivered until 2027.

Complex colour blend: a fiery red beard, standards of a creamy custard yellow, tinted with mauve at the midrib, and falls strongly splashed with mauve in the centre, with a pale tan edge becoming rose towards the throat. We have known it to reflower in August, when the colour appears paler than at first flowering, but further observation is required to confirm this tendency.


Miscela di colore molto interessante: una barba rosso fuoco, gli vessili di una giallo crema, con un toco di malva, le ali di malva al bordo beige, diventano rosa pallido verso la gola. Quest’anno a rifiorito qui a Casa Nova nel mese di agosto, quando il colore appare più chiaro rispetto a prima fioritura, ma ulteriori osservazioni è necessario per confermare questa tendenza a rifiorire.
