Bearded Iris Black Knight

Dutchgrown Uk Spring
Step into the world of sophistication with Bearded Iris 'Black Knight', a truly striking variety that brings an air of mystery and elegance to your garden. Its velvety, deep purple-black blooms command attention with their dramatic tones and intricate ruffled edges. The bold flowers are further enhanced by their royal purple beards, adding an exquisite touch of contrast that elevates this iris into a class of its own.. Standing tall at 90-100 cm, this majestic iris is ideal for creating vertical interest in borders, alongside pathways, or in mixed perennial displays. Its sword-like, grey-green foliage offers structure and presence even when the plant isnt in bloom, providing year-round architectural value. Expect 'Black Knight' to bloom from late spring to early summer, offering weeks of captivating beauty just as the garden begins to awaken into its full glory.. What truly sets 'Black Knight' apart is its rich, almost-black colouring a rare and sought-after shade in the gardening world. Few plants can match its intensity, making it a fantastic choice for creating bold contrasts when paired with lighter-toned flowers, such as whites, silvers, or pale pinks.. Another exceptional detail is its hardiness and resilience in UK gardens. Despite its luxurious appearance, 'Black Knight' thrives in a wide range of soils, as long as they are well-draining, and its surprisingly drought-tolerant once established. This makes it a fantastic option for both seasoned gardeners and those new to irises.. A lesser-known characteristic is its performance as a cut flower. With its tall, sturdy stems and striking blooms, 'Black Knight' adds dramatic flair to indoor arrangements, lasting beautifully in a vase..
