Description
Iris sibirica 'Pink Parfait' is a mid-season Siberian Iris. Its beautifully formed double flowers bloom atop tall flower stems, revealing their iridescent beauty. The flower features a lavender-blue centre, fading to pink and pale pink on the edges. The yellow heart is accentuated with brown markings. It blooms in spring, dominating a dense clump of upright leaves that remain attractive for many months. Appreciated for their graceful flowers and sculptural foliage, Siberian irises are vigorous and beautiful plants for moist soil, unlike their cousins the bearded irises. They are adaptable and very hardy irises, thriving in good garden soil that retains moisture in summer.
The 'Pink Parfait' Siberian Iris is a rhizomatous and deciduous perennial plant, with upright clumps from spring onwards. It belongs to the Iridaceae family. This selection is part of the many cultivars obtained from Iris sibirica, native to Central Europe, Eastern Europe, and Turkey (but absent from Siberia), and Iris sanguinea found in China, Siberia, Japan, Manchuria, and Korea. This Pink Parfait iris will reach approximately 60 cm in height when in bloom, with foliage reaching 40 cm in height and the clump spreading about 40 cm. Its growth rate is moderate, slower than that of bearded irises. This plant has an upright habit, with an elegant dense clump. The foliage consists of long narrow, slightly greyish-green leaves. From early May to early June, depending on the region, the flower stems produce composite flowers with a minimum of 12 petals. The flowers open successively from the tip of the stem to the lower branches. This iris spreads through rhizomes, with its vegetation disappearing in winter.
Siberian iris 'Pink Parfait' is ideal near a water feature or stream, or simply in well-moist to very wet soil. It can also be used in any type of garden that never completely dries out. Its gracefulness is perfect for romantic gardens, English gardens, and other mixed borders. It can be associated with many perennials that thrive in the same conditions in moist soil: camassias, poet's narcissus, montbretias, daylilies, astilbes.
Note: The wild Siberian Iris L. is an endangered and protected species that must be respected. Horticultural Siberian irises are the result of hybridization between different species in the Sibericae series (I. sanguinea, etc.). Their flowers are larger than those of the wild forms and come in various colours. Several hundred named cultivars are registered.

Planting and care
Siberian iris 'Pink Parfait' can tolerate a wet location, such as a bank, as long as it is not permanently submerged. It can also be grown in regular garden soil, with a mulch and watering every 15 days in summer. It prefers an acidic to neutral soil (pH 4.5 to 7.5), rich and well-drained. A soil that is too clayey, too chalky, or too sandy can be improved by adding a good amount of humus (well-decomposed compost). An alkaline soil can be slightly acidified by adding ericaceous soil or peat, pine needles, or flowers of sulfur.
Siberian irises need a sunny location to bloom with at least 6 hours of daily sunlight. In hotter regions, light shading during the hottest hours can be beneficial. It is best to plant during the dormant period, from late September to mid-April, outside of freezing periods. In hot climates, planting can be done in September. In regions with cold winters, planting should be done at the beginning of growth, in late March or April. (They will only bloom the following year). Planting in August can be an alternative.
Plant Siberian iris rhizomes at a depth of 3-5 cm. Siberian irises can remain in place without division for longer than bearded irises. They should only be divided every 5 to 10 years when the clump no longer blooms in the centre or forms a crown. Sufficient space should be provided for proper development. Feed with an NPK 10-10-10 type fertiliser at the start of growth and after flowering in June. On young clumps, systematically remove faded flower stems to prevent exhaustion. On well-established clumps, remove the flower stems to prevent self-seeding of non-true plants.
After autumn frosts, yellowing foliage can be cut back to 3-5 cm above the ground (and left in place as mulch). Alternatively, this dry foliage can be left during winter as an "architectural" element in the garden. It is then only cut back at the end of winter, in late February, before new leaf growth.

Hardiness is the lowest winter temperature a plant can endure without suffering serious damage or even dying. However, hardiness is affected by location (a sheltered area, such as a patio), protection (winter cover) and soil type (hardiness is improved by well-drained soil).
