Rocky Hunt is a beautiful, intense purple Louisiana Iris. Rocky Hunt is fast growing and matures in at about 24-36" tall.
The Rocky Hunt prefers full sun for maximum blooms, but will tolerate part shade. After purchasing, be generous with the water for the first three weeks or so (after that this is a very low effort plant that will reward you with lots of gorgeous blooms).
It is important not to cut the flower stalks of spent blooms, as successive blooms will reemerge from the same stalk. After she puts on her final late summer show and takes a bow (around early autumn), then you will want to prune her all the way down to 2-3" from the ground. This ensures she does not spend vital energy trying to keep her foliage perfect over the dormant season and will ensure you a plethora of blooms next spring.
