Bearded irises grow well in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 4 through 10. The best time to divide these plants is four to six weeks after they bloom -- midsummer to early fall -- every two to three years when blooming decreases.
Beardless iris flowers are similar in appearance to their bearded cousins, but they have smooth fall petals and thinner, more grass-like leaves. They are also known as apogoniris or apogons, and produce flowers in numerous colors including white, yellow, pink, purple, blue and maroon.ulbous Iris. Bulbous iris flowers differ from the other types because they are grown from bulbs instead of rhizomes. They are planted in fall and enter dormancy in the summer, during which time the bulbs may be lifted from the ground and stored until time to replant.
