Description

Wild form of dwarf iris grown from seed so with a hybrid mix of colours.

This Iris will keep low whilst flowering venturing only slightly higher than 10cm with summer foliage. Flowering mainly in April-May these can sporadically flower through summer. Ideally grown in a sunny free draining soil with rhizomes visible on surface.

To do this we recommend using a clean knife to cut up rhizomes into smaller segments every other year.
