Iris Champagne Elegance brings a calm, luminous beauty to the garden, with softly ruffled blooms in snowy white and warm apricot tones that give the petals a subtle champagne glow.

Top Tip
Remove faded Iris blooms to keep the plant looking tidy, but leave the foliage in place until it naturally dies back, as it continues feeding the rhizome for next year’s flowers. This helps the plant store energy and ensures a strong display the following season.
How to Water
Keep watering light and steady, giving the plants just enough moisture to stop the soil from drying out completely. Irises prefer not to sit in wet ground, so allow the top layer of soil to dry slightly between waterings, especially once the plants are established and the weather warms.
How to Plant
Plant Iris bulbs in well‑drained soil, setting them so the top of the rhizome sits just at or slightly above the soil surface. Choose a sunny, sheltered spot, water lightly as growth begins, and allow the plants good airflow to keep them healthy and flowering well.
