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.

Almost black and white, with sizzling orange beards. Very dramatic effect which stops passers by in their tracks. Multiple prizewinner. Hard to find here in Europe – I imported our stock from the US with some difficulty. Hence, rhizomes are rather expensive, until stocks have increased.


Quasi bianco e nero, con barbe arancioni come le braci. Effetto molto drammatico che ferma i passanti nelle loro tracce. Vincitore di premi multipli. Difficile da trovare qui in Europa – ho importato le nostre dagli Stati Uniti con qualche difficoltà. Quindi, i rizomi sono piuttosto costosi, fino a quando le piante si sono aumentate.
