Rasputin Bearded Iris is a fragrant bicolor variety, tall and stately, known for its hardiness and beauty. Blooming in the mid-season, it stands out in the garden with its large, ruffled apricot standards resting above vivid scarlet-pink ruffled falls. Bright tangerine beards are complemented by clusters of light peach veins. With 10 buds per stem, Rasputin proves to be a prolific bloomer once it establishes itself.
