Iris barbudo - What are they?

20 years ago

Hope someone can explain what the "barbudo" means or why some Iris have this as part of their name. Are they all re-bloomers? Real tender? Real hardy? Bog lovers? All bearded? Lots of questions. I appreciate all help in solving this mystery to me. I bought some that have this as their scientific name.

TIA

I see that term on packages of iris sold in WalMart, etc. The iris in the package are always bearded,usually Tall Bearded Iris but I haven't the slightest idea what that word specifically means. I don't think there is any species called 'barbudo', so don't let it throw you...I think it is just a misleading term.

Barbudo is Spanish for bearded.

The package may even have planting instructions in English and Spanish.
