Even a #1 rhizome may take a couple years of building energy before delivering years of reliable, low-maintenance perennial color. KickStart Iris are guaranteed to bloom in year one. Plus, they're already developing more stems for year two... or divide and share them with an envious friend. Also, we only selected reblooming iris varieties for this series, so no matter if you create a mass planting of Blatant, or surround it with other KickStart varieties, you'll have an extra-long iris season to look forward to.
Rosy-plum standards rise above deep velvety burgundy falls, all set off by the unexpected orange beards. Disease resistant foliage, strong stems and vigorous growth habit complete the award-winning characteristics. Blooms midseason on 34-36" stems.
