One of the most beautiful irises I’ve ever seen is the Caesar’s Brother Siberian Iris.  It spreads quickly after the first year’s planting and does best in moist soil.

This tall and vertically spiky iris looks great planted in large swaths along a lake or other water feature, but is just as lovely in a landlocked garden.  I highly recommend it.
