Homeowner Growing Tips

This iris is adaptable to different conditions ranging from moist to dryer soil. It also can handle some sun to full shade.

Deadhead spend blooms. Divide every few years. Cut back the foliage left in late fall, before winter to roughly just above the ground.

Water Requirements: Water soil fully, then let moderately dry out before next watering.
