Iris germanica Total Recall
German Iris, Bearded Iris
5 stars for a very good comeback. Planted in early October last year, they all have multiple flower buds and one flower has already bloomed. However, 2 stars for the accuracy of the product description. It is now late February, admittedly our winter has been very mild, but for a blooming period announced from May to June, it's a miss... They are more than early. Moreover, the flower is a solid and uniform yellow, not "white with yellow highlights at the heart". Therefore, disappointed as it does not offer the desired effect for my flower bed.

Description
Tall Bearded Iris Total Recall has white petals with yellow highlights at the heart. It emits a slight fragrance and has a perpetual flowering.
Everyone knows Iris germanica, or Bearded Iris, which has become world famous thanks to the paintings of Van Gogh and Monet. It owes its popularity to its unique design.
Its wide rigid, sword-shaped leaves contrast with crumpled, multicolored flowers held high. The flowers have three large upright petals and three silky and trailing sepals, called "beards" for a few weeks in May/June. This Iris has large fleshy rhizomes creeping on the ground. It likes light, heat, and light and well-drained soils. It doesn't mind cold or summer drought, its enemy is wet, heavy soil. It is superb in a sunny border and makes a beautiful cut flower.
It is very resistant when exposed to full sun, in dry and well-drained soil.
Plant Iris Total Recall in a border or bed with yarrow, alliums, stipas or roses. It is better to plant them in groups of 3 or alone instead of creating iris beds.

Planting and care
Iris Total Recall should be planted shallowly, leaving the rhizome exposed at ground level. Add sand when the soil is too heavy or too wet, and place the rhizomes on small mounds. Ensure good drainage so that the irises do not rot. During summer, this iris should be watered 1 to 2 times a month. After flowering, cut the flower stems to 10 cm (4in) above the ground. Damaged leaves should only be removed in autumn. It is not a good idea to apply too much nitrogen as it weakens the plant and increases the number of leaves at the expense of flowers. Taller flower stalks can become brittle. The iris can be susceptible to heterosporiosis, a disease identified by oval brown spots. To prevent it, treat the irises with Bordeaux mixture at the beginning of the growing season. Divide the clumps every 4 years in summer after flowering by digging up the entire clump. Take the most beautiful young plants from the rhizome, usually those on the outer edge, and transplant them to an area where there have been no irises for at least a year

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
The flowering period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, the United Kingdom, Ireland, the Netherlands, etc.)
It will vary according to where you live:- In zones 9 to 10 (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), flowering will occur about 2 to 4 weeks earlier.
- In zones 6 to 7 (Germany, Poland, Slovenia, and lower mountainous regions), flowering will be delayed by 2 to 3 weeks.
- In zone 5 (Central Europe, Scandinavia), blooming will be delayed by 3 to 5 weeks.
In temperate climates, pruning of spring-flowering shrubs (forsythia, spireas, etc.) should be done just after flowering.
Pruning of summer-flowering shrubs (Indian Lilac, Perovskia, etc.) can be done in winter or spring.
In cold regions as well as with frost-sensitive plants, avoid pruning too early when severe frosts may still occur.
The planting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions located in USDA zone 8 (France, United Kingdom, Ireland, Netherlands).
It will vary according to where you live:
- In Mediterranean zones (Marseille, Madrid, Milan, etc.), autumn and winter are the best planting periods.
- In continental zones (Strasbourg, Munich, Vienna, etc.), delay planting by 2 to 3 weeks in spring and bring it forward by 2 to 4 weeks in autumn.
- In mountainous regions (the Alps, Pyrenees, Carpathians, etc.), it is best to plant in late spring (May-June) or late summer (August-September).
The harvesting period indicated on our website applies to countries and regions in USDA zone 8 (France, England, Ireland, the Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...) fruit and vegetable harvests are likely to be delayed by 3-4 weeks.
In warmer areas (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), harvesting will probably take place earlier, depending on weather conditions.
The sowing periods indicated on our website apply to countries and regions within USDA Zone 8 (France, UK, Ireland, Netherlands).
In colder areas (Scandinavia, Poland, Austria...), delay any outdoor sowing by 3-4 weeks, or sow under glass.
In warmer climes (Italy, Spain, Greece, etc.), bring outdoor sowing forward by a few weeks.
