Setup, Compatibility & Care
Planting: Plant the bulbs in autumn at a depth of approximately 5-7cm. Ensure the pointed end is facing upward and space them about 5-7cm apart for a dense display.
Soil: These irises thrive in sunny spots with well-draining, gritty soil. If your soil is heavy clay, add horticultural grit to the planting hole to improve drainage.
Sunlight: Full sun is preferred to ensure strong stems and vibrant color production.
Maintenance: Allow the foliage to die back naturally after flowering; this process is vital for the bulb to store energy for the following year. Once the leaves have turned yellow and withered, you can tidy them up. Avoid overwatering during the dormant summer months.
