Japanese Iris Tiramisu

Japanese Iris Tiramisu

Give your best customers a treat they won't soon forget. Our new Tiramisu Dinnerplate Japanese Iris are mammoth in size, reaching an impressive 6" across. And who wouldn't crave the creamy white blooms edged and sprinkled in sweet purple? They are nearly twice the size of old-fashioned iris ensata, and make quite an exquisite showing in sun-splashed borders or naturalized landscape locales. They thrive in moist areas, such as near the edge of a creek, pond or even a man-made water feature. Plus, Tiramisu readily returns each year in greater numbers if the plants are left alone. The flowers make excellent fresh-cut bouquets or indoor arrangements, too.

Large gorgeous iris!

Submitted 2 years ago

By Nancy Katt

From Newburgh, IN

Tiramisu is a gorgeous large white, with pink edges, Japanese iris. I have three good sized plantings. So easy to grow. First year of planting, keep watered well in the summer. I've had mine for about three years and they have tripled in size. Cut down foliage in late fall to keep your garden neat.

Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend to a friend

Unfortunately they have not come out and I planted them in the same border where the other Irises I've ordered are thriving. Very sad as they look beautiful

Not the advertised product. Small generic purple japanese Iris. Nothing special.

Merchant Response

Thank you for sharing your review with us. We were sorry to hear the Japanese Iris Tiramisu did not bloom as advertised. In looking at your order, we could not find an evidence of mis-shipment, but mislabeling or mis-shipment could have happened. We are delighted to let you know we guarantee our merchandise and we will be reaching out to you with a positive resolution.

Bottom Line No, I would not recommend to a friend

Q
The photo of prior purchase shows a different bloom. If the one I just purchased is not nearly like the photo listed do I return them or is it a 'buyer beware' item ( you can't guarantee color/pattern)?
Asked by Jo

Do I have to plant this when I get it or can I wait until the Fall? I live in zone 5-6.
Asked by Paul
