Badlands

Tall Bearded Iris ‘Badlands’ (Schreiner 2003) EM-L 38" - A show-bench champion with undeniable presence, ‘Badlands’ is one of the finest ruffled dark irises in cultivation. Descended from the legendary Hello Darkness, this award-winning tall bearded iris commands attention with its wide, lavishly ruffled petals, deep violet-purple coloration, and luxurious velvety texture.

Subtle elegance sets Badlands apart—its discreet beards are delicately accented with a whisper of white, adding depth and refinement to the dramatic blooms. Exceptionally vigorous and easy to propagate, this iris is as dependable in the garden as it is striking in display.

Blooming from early midseason through late, Badlands extends your iris season with 10–12 triple-socketed buds carried on strong 3–4 branched stems, ensuring a long-lasting and impressive floral show. A must-have for collectors, exhibitors, and anyone who loves bold, classic irises.

Don’t let your garden be without this proven standout.
