About
Water Iris Plants for Ponds Water iris are among the most elegant marginal plants for pond edges, producing striking sword-like foliage and graceful blooms in blue, purple, yellow, and white. Play It Koi carries Louisiana iris, Japanese iris, blue flag iris, and other varieties that thrive in wet soil and shallow water — perfect for naturalizing pond borders and bog gardens. Planting Water Iris Plant iris rhizomes horizontally in mesh baskets or directly into pond shelf soil at 1–4 inches of water depth. Most varieties prefer full sun but tolerate partial shade. Divide clumps every 2–3 years in late summer to maintain vigor. Pro tip: Louisiana iris are the most water-tolerant variety and can grow fully submerged up to 6 inches — they are the best choice for deeper pond shelves. Play It Koi offers free shipping on orders over $99. Questions? Contact our pond experts for iris growing advice.
