Iris sanguinea is an Asian iris known for its tall stems and deep purple flowers. It produces narrow, dark green leaves that hold shape through the growing season.

This iris flower forms clumps over time and spreads with simple division. It tolerates dry conditions and adapts well to both sunny and semi-shaded areas.

Grow purple iris in beds, borders, or light woodland edges. It suits low-maintenance plantings and requires minimal care once established. This variety brings vertical lines and color contrast to garden designs.
