Description
Black Iris (Iris germanica ‘Black Beauty’ or Iris chrysographes) is an elegant and mysterious perennial prized for its deep, velvety black-purple blooms. With ruffled petals and a striking contrast against its sword-like green foliage, this iris creates a dramatic focal point in gardens and landscapes.
Blooming in late spring to early summer, Black Iris thrives in full sun and well-draining soil, making it an excellent choice for borders, flower beds, and water-wise gardens. Its alluring, almost gothic appearance pairs beautifully with lighter-colored flowers, and it attracts pollinators like bees and butterflies. Hardy and low-maintenance, this stunning iris adds sophistication and depth to any planting scheme.
