Product Details

This lily is actually a member of the iris family. Iris honors the Greek goddess of the rainbow and these flowers add a ideal pop of color. Crimson-red spots cover the mostly orange petals and fanned-out leaves and tall, clean stems make them ideal cut flowers. The seedheads split to reveal the namesake blackberry-like seedheads that also look lovely in in autumnal arrangements. Blackberry lilies are tough, drought-tolerant and attract hummingbirds and other pollinators. Perennial in USDA zones 5 to 10.
