TB: CULT: Shade for plants

If one were to cut branches from shrubs or trees to shade iris,
which varieties would give the most shade AND not shrivel up
and fall over instantly in this heat?  

I don't have that many spare plants to cut from, here in 
Texas, but it would be interesting to know which could be
useful.  They'd need to be arching in order to stick in ground
and arch umbrellalike over the iris.
