Iris Bulbs

Irises are one of the true beauties of the flower bulb world. The popular blue and purple varieties are a must have addition for every garden and with our Dutch Iris Beauty Super Mix you can grow iris bulbs in a rainbow of colours. This mixture provides an elegant blend of colour from the dwarf Specie & Reticulata irises that flower in early spring, to the tall Dutch Iris which flowers in June and makes excellent cut flowers. When these bulbs are planted deep in the ground, they will naturalise and provide colour year after year.

When to Plant Iris Bulbs

Plant irises from July to September. This gives enough time for the roots to establish before winter.

Where to Plant Iris Bulbs

Irises bloom best in full sunshine, although they can tolerate half a day of sun. If starved of sunlight they’ll fail to flower

Iris bulbs require fertile soil that is natural to slightly acidic and has good drainage all year round.
