Planting & Care for Iris
Tall bearded iris thrive full to part sun in well-draining soils. They do not tolerate damp or wet soils
Plant your iris with the rhizome just above the soil to insure blooms next year. Fertilize in early Spring and immediately after flowers fade. Trim and remove dried foliage 6-8 weeks after flower fade. Dig and divide rhizomes every 3-5 years to promote flowering.
See my blog post ‘Native Plants and Iris’ for more information about growing this beautiful ‘rebel’ flower in your garden.
