Iris sibirica ‘Côte d’Azur’ is a stunning Siberian iris that brings the cool, calming hues of the Mediterranean coast to your garden. Its delicate, silken blue flowers, offering a soft yet vibrant touch to borders, wetland gardens, or any garden with consistently moist soil. ‘Côte d’Azur’ combines the elegance of tall, graceful stems with the beauty of intricate, star-shaped blooms, making it a showstopper in a variety of settings.

Why Grow Iris sibirica ‘Côte d’Azur’?

  • Elegant Blue Blooms – The soft, azure blue flowers with lavender accents create a serene and soothing presence, ideal for brightening up any garden.
  • Refined Flower Structure – With delicate, ruffled petals that form a star-shaped bloom, ‘Côte d’Azur’ exudes a timeless elegance that complements any garden style.
  • Moisture-Loving – Perfect for wet areas, this iris thrives in moist to boggy conditions, making it an excellent choice for rain gardens, alongside streams, or in damp garden beds.
  • Hardy and Low Maintenance – As a Siberian iris, ‘Côte d’Azur’ is both tough and easy to care for, thriving in a variety of conditions while requiring minimal maintenance once established.
  • Pollinator-Friendly – Attracts bees and butterflies, making it a wonderful choice for pollinator-friendly gardens.

Where to Site Your Iris sibirica ‘Côte d’Azur’ Iris sibirica ‘Côte d’Azur’ thrives in moist, well-drained soil and prefers full sun to partial shade. It does particularly well in areas with consistently moist conditions, such as rain gardens, near ponds, or in low-lying areas where water tends to collect. It can also be planted in borders, alongside streams, or in naturalized settings where its soft blue blooms will stand out. ‘Côte d’Azur’ also works well in cutting gardens, as its elegant flowers make stunning arrangements.

How to Grow and Care for Your Iris sibirica ‘Côte d’Azur’

  • Soil – Prefers moist, well-drained soil rich in organic matter. This iris can tolerate wet conditions, making it perfect for boggy areas, but avoid waterlogged soils as they can lead to rot.
  • Light – Best grown in full sun for the most vibrant blooms, but it will tolerate partial shade, particularly in areas with moist soil.
  • Watering – Ensure that the soil remains consistently moist, particularly during the growing season. ‘Côte d’Azur’ appreciates regular watering, but make sure the soil is well-drained to avoid waterlogging.

Maintenance:

  • Mulch & Feed – Add a light mulch layer around the plant in early spring to help retain moisture and keep the roots cool. Fertilize with a balanced, slow-release fertilizer at the start of the growing season to encourage healthy growth and abundant blooms.
  • Dividing – Divide the plant every 3-4 years to maintain vigor and prevent overcrowding. Division is best done in late summer or early fall, after the blooming period.
  • Deadheading & Cleanup – After blooming, remove spent flowers to prevent seed formation and encourage the plant to focus on growth. Cut back any dead or yellowing foliage in the fall to keep the garden tidy and to maintain the plant's shape.

Perfect Plant Combinations Iris sibirica ‘Côte d’Azur’ pairs beautifully with other moisture-loving perennials, such as Astilbes, Ligularia, or Japanese primroses, creating a soft, harmonious effect. Its cool blue flowers contrast nicely with the deep greens of ferns or hostas, while the delicate foliage of astilbes and other shade-tolerant plants complements its graceful structure. For a more dramatic look, pair it with the vibrant yellows of Iris sibirica ‘Colonel Mustard’ or the rich purples of other irises, creating a striking color palette that draws attention. ‘Côte d’Azur’ also looks stunning when planted alongside grasses, such as Japanese blood grass or sedges, for a naturalistic, meadow-like effect.
