Description
Bearded irises don't grow from bulbs (a popular misconception), but from large fleshy roots called rhizomes. In days gone by, gardeners often called them "German irises," despite the fact that they're not native to Germany, but the Mediterranean region. Modern selections are so heavily hybridized there's no telling where the genes came from, so we just call them "bearded irises" and leave it at that.
