Iris ‘Mixed’ (15 bulbs)

This colourful mix of traditional dwarf Dutch Iris bulbs contains a mix of deep velvet, subtle blue and yellow.

These bulbs will also produce grass-like, grey-green leaves that will grow as tall as the flowers before extending after flowering up to a height of around 30cm/12″, eventually fading away in late spring.

Blooming between February and March, these beautifully mixed Iris bulbs are perfect for planting in gravel or rock gardens, at the front of an early border or in pots and containers to be placed on patios, terraces and balconies. For the greatest visual impact plant in groups of at least 20 bulbs.

Plant these bulbs at a depth and spread of approximately 8cm/3″ to allow room for the flowers to grow. They prefer alkaline or neutral soil and a position of full sun or partial shade.
