Dwarf Iris Collection Bulbs – Fragrant Early Spring Perennial

Beat spring to the punch with the Dwarf Iris Collection — compact 15 cm (6") perennial bulbs that burst into vibrant, spotted blooms alongside crocuses and snowdrops in March to early April. Sweetly fragrant and low-growing, these easy-to-place bulbs are perfect for rockeries, the front of borders, or containers where their colorful display can be enjoyed up close. Narrow foliage emerges after blooming and fades gracefully by late spring.

Planting Instructions

• Plant in fall for March–April blooms.
• Choose a sunny to partly shaded spot with well-draining soil.
• Plant bulbs 3–4" deep and 3" apart in beds (cluster slightly closer in containers), pointed end up, roots down.
• Water well after planting to settle the soil.
• In containers, clustering bulbs creates a fuller, more impact-filled spring display.

After Bloom Care

• After flowering, reduce watering and allow the plant to rest through the warmer months.
• Leaves will die back by late spring — tidy up at that point or simply let nature take its course.
• Bulbs are perennial and will return each spring.
