Tall Bearded Iris 'Immortality'

I have had the stunning and shimmering white Immortality in my garden for years. Once the clumps are established, generally after a year ...Read Moreor two, they re-bloom with absolute consistency for me in late September/early October, sending up new stalks until freezing weather. The only other iris I have that is as reliable a re-bloomer as Immortality is 'Baby Blessed', a yellow dwarf iris that was also given to me years ago. Highly recommended.

I love these large fragrant flowers that bloom twice for me every year. I did have 2 small groups that did not bloom this year, but I thi...Read Morenk that might be from my taking babies from them too much. Not sure. Otherwise, tons of flowers twice a year.

This was worth waiting for !
I love the soft lilac buds sheathed in spathes and the promise of pure white flowers.

I'm hoping for an increase in the rhizomes so I can take some over to my mother's garden .

I love love Immortality Iris, I bought it in Ebay, I know some sellers may have mislabelled the plant they sell but I really dont mind as...Read More I am bound to forget all these names just like all the plants I bought. "From our yard and too over grown. I am selling what I have cleared. We are not experts cutting these roots but my kids wants extra money, they will box it and send you extras. I researched this and believe its **Immortality**. You wont be dissappointed if you like iris all the time. Buy more and save on large flat rate box shipping"...that was his winning ad. I almost wished I didnt bid beacause I **do not like white flowers**, but I did because we needed a contrast to this yellow iris we have the blooms from spring until some heavy snows snaps the flower stems. When my husband opened the box, he said I just bought a lot of irises to get tired of. OMG, it was more than what we wanted to work on for that afternoon. The plants were so so fresh they seemed freshly dugged, dirt shooked, boxed and shipped. It is now 10/23/2012 I have blooms and flower stems on almost each root the ebayer sold me.What made me sign in to this site- is to let you know what the ebayer didnt mention, this is fragrant !!! I placed this beautiful glowing white iris in our foyer buffet, it filled the entrance with this delicate scent. Another plus that was not mentioned was the color is not flat white, its has a very light hint of lavender and stripes that make the flower seem to glow in our foyer, then the yellow beard!!! So pretty!!!! Thanks to the comments I read on this site, I found another iris of a different color that is truly delightful. Can anyone recommend a fragrant and reblooming TB iris that is not white or yellow as I have both already?

Probably my favorite iris. It has rebloomed for me on even small new divisions. It is beautiful with roses and has a wonderful scent. ...Read MoreIf you are scared to pay the money for RB iris, this is the one to try. I have several pictures of it blooming on my blog.

I planted two of these the beginning of May this year. One already has a beautiful bloom now. It has a faint purple tint.

Immortality has bloomed once in the 3 years I've had it. The blooms were gorgeous, large and numerous.

Planted last spring, '08, and is blooming now, March 09. Surprised because it only gets 5 hours of sun!

Had this plant before Linda gave me a piece and it died because it insisted on blooming in Oct not in the spring. I placed Linda's piece ...Read Morein a more sheltered spot and it bloomed in the spring and did not in Oct so it might live long enough to make babies. Lovely white flower and smells wonderful.

Planted fall 2004. Rebloomed in 2006 and 2007 - in zone 4a. Amazing.

Flower is not impressive in size or form - a grey/green white, but would do well in landscape situations in large clumps. Haven't gotten mine to set a pod and no success as a pollen parent yet either -hmm.

Immortality grows in a bed beside a building where I work. It reblooms in July and August and is often in full flower in 95 degree plus heat.

Grows quickly, have to divide every other year (but then I get to share the wealth with friends). Because of this I've only had it rebloo...Read Morem once for me in the past 5 years. Blooms early to mid-May in Nebraska (zone 5), before my other tall bearded iris.

Great grower! Reblooms in fall and winter here. Dependable rebloomer too.

Beautiful and vigorous - pure white blooms with a yellowish beard.
