The Aril Society International is a group of iris enthusiasts that are devoted to promoting the aril and arilbred irises.Arils, or aril irises, are native to the Middle East and grow in Israel, Syria, Lebanon, Iraq, Iran, Afghanistan, Turkey, and some southern republics of the former Soviet Union. Aril irises get their name from the creamy white collar (or "aril") on their seeds. Arilbreds, or arilbred irises, are the result of breeding aril irises with the more commonly grown bearded irises. The arilbreds are diverse in color and form. The combinations of color, size, and form make this a fun and exciting choice of irises to grow. |
