Day Lilies and Bearded Iris

The day lilies and bearded iris at Murgon Garden Centre are going great guns this season.

Day lilies are gorgeous, fragrant, clumping plants that provide wonderful colour. The individual flowers on Day lilies, as the name suggests only last for a day, but each flower spike can frequently have over 15 flowers. These are a heat and cold loving plant, being drought and frost tolerant. This makes them an excellent plant for our gardens. They come in a variety in colours and sizes with flowers from just 5cm in diameter and up to and over 20cm in diameter, they can be double, single, spider etc., fragrant or non-fragrant. The range of colours is astounding, pinks, yellows and reds are quite common, however there are so many colour combinations including purples, whites, ivories, pinks, oranges, yellows etc. Our range includes up to 95 varieties at any one time. With flowering starting from late October through to as late as April in our area, depending on the variety.

Bearded Iris

Bearded Iris are a fantastic addition to gardens. They grow well in our area due to our warm summer temperatures and cold winters. A clumping plant that has low water requirements is a great addition to South Burnett gardens. Bearded Iris clump from their Rhizomes which should be located just under the top of the soil. We stock tall varieties of Bearded iris. We recommend having them in a situation where they will get frosts and cold temperatures during winter and semi shade (provided they get minimum of 6 hours full sun) in the heat of summer even though they are a full sun plant. We stock up 50 varieties of Bearded Iris at any one time, depending on the season and demand.
