Botanical Data

Family:Iridaceae (eye-rid-AY-see-ee)
Genus:Iris (EYE-ris)
Cultivar:'Triplet'
Hybridizer:Keppel
Year Registered:1987

'Triplet' grows to the typical 16-27 inches. The name may refer to three distinctive features—perhaps three falls markings, three color tones, or simply three exceptional qualities: form, color, and vigor. The flowers are well-proportioned with good substance, presented on adequately branched stems.

Culture follows IB norms: full sun, well-drained soil, rhizomes at surface. Space 10-12 inches. Water during active growth. Fertilize lightly in spring. Divide every 3-4 years in late summer. 'Triplet' demonstrates that garden excellence often comes in threes.
