My irises badly need lifting & dividing, and have not bloomed well at all this year. But the largest ones I have seen seem to be many offered by Schreiner's catalog. So gorgeous.

I adore bearded irises, but once the bloom is over, what do folk do?? The broad leaves are handsome in their own right, nicely vertical and usually very clean. But the end of bloom does leave a bit of a vacuum visually (altho Mother Nature does fill that vacuum quickly with a plethora of weeds, bless her little heart).

What suggestions for companion plantings?? For later in the summer... Help!

Hi @roxanna, First to bloom are the Daffodils. Then the ground Phlox & Columbines. Then the Iris. Next to bloom in my garden...Asiatic and Turks Cap lilies.
