Care Instructions

Best grown in sun and moderately fertile, well-drained soil. Bearded irises like to have their rhizomes baked by the sun so try not to cover this with soil or other foliage. Divide the clumps every so often after flowering to maintain their vigour. Do not over-feed. Effective planted in front of Euphorbia 'Dixter'.

Harmful if eaten.
