IrisUmbria.it

A plant nursery in the heart of Umbria, specialising in bearded irises.  By enthusiasts, for enthusiasts.

To order irises, visit our online store here. For cut off dates for orders for delivery in 2023 see here.

Our display gardens will open in May of each year, showing well over 850 types of irises, alongside roses and peonies.  For further details, see here.

Irises are not the backdrop, the supporting cast - steady, reliable and always doing their bit for the collective in the garden. No. They are the aristocrats, the stars, the fashionistas of the garden, who blaze for their moment of sublime glory and then bow out.  So here is a red carpet, a catwalk of incomparable style and beauty, ranging from classical elegance to fairy tale princess to cyber-punk.
