If the tall bearded iris is the queen of the garden, the natives are the pixies. The showy flowers emerge in the spring to add delight to the garden. Members of the Iris family section Californicae, PCN's are a part of a special beardless iris group, which includes Siberians, Spurias, and Japanese iris.
While it is possible to plant year-round, fall planting is best, particularly in October or November. Roots must be kept wet after plants are dug and should never be allowed to dry.
The black iris is one of the rarest flowers in the world, and displays a very unique mix of colours, it is characterised by a dark purple almost black colour' with a mesmerizing Lilac hue and a white spot in the middle of the flower.
In floriography, the language of flowers, the iris carries meanings of faith, courage, hope, and wisdom. These associations can be traced back to Greek mythology, where Iris was the goddess of the rainbow and a messenger for Zeus and Hera.
