Item Description
You are purchasing 2 (two 'fans') Walking Iris, Apostle Plant (Neomarica gracilis) Blooming size plants/fans (many already have babies forming on them!).
These wonderful plants, with delicate white and purple iris blooms and tall leaves that grow in a fan shape, are SO EASY TO GROW it will amaze you! In tropical areas, these shade-loving plants make great substitutes for iris. These walking iris' bloom in profusion in the spring. The inflorescence arises from the base. When each inflorescence is finished flowering, it produces plantlets and arches toward the ground (walking) where they will take root and start a new plant.
Reported cold hardy to USDA Zone 8 (I grow in 9a with no problems), these can be grown in containers in colder climates and brought in during the winter. If growing in a pot, you can clip the plantlets when they have air roots and place in their own pot for sharing or for even more blooms in coming years.
Plantlets take only 1 year to bloom (depending on climate and care).
NOTE: You may receive a small 'clump' with two blooming plants growing together, or two individual plants; depending on what I have available at the time of your order. If you get a 'clump', the plants can be divided or planted together as they are. If you specifically want/need two individual plants (i.e.: you are sharing one with a friend), let me know.
Planting instructions can be found at the link below. Email me with any questions before buying/bidding.
