A great many years ago, our landscaper put in three clumps of this iris. The flowers are purple (more purple than the picture), about 1.5-2" in size, and grow on maybe 2.5-3' stems. The foliage is narrow and almost as tall.
Right now I would say that we are near the end of the bearded iris season, and this is the time of year when these irises normally bloom. However, over the years the bloom has dwindled more and more on the three clumps, to where I am getting almost none.
Last year, hypothesizing that maybe too much shade had grown around these plants, I tried digging and moving one clump, but it died.
In order to know what to do about these plants, I need to have a clue as to what kind of iris the plant is. (Clearly it is not a bearded iris.)
Does anyone have any ideas? Bloom image below (remember, it is more purple).
Thanks for any help!
