Iris germanica
Iris germanica is a rhizomatous perennial forming fans of glossy evergreen foliage. Branched stems up to 60cm hold rich purple flowers. These flowers are simply stunning and look fantastic against other blues and greens.
A stunning colour rarely seen for sale.
These flower in late spring outside. We grow these in full sun in the ground where the rhizomes can be baked
Comes in a 1litre pot of flowering size.
Find the right spot and these will multiply rapidly.
Upon arrival unpack and water place in a cool semi shady spot to allow to recover from shipping. After a day or two these can be planted out. Dig a hole the size of the pot and fill with water. Sprinkle a handful of slow release food granules into the hole (this is optional but will give the plants an added boost and can be purchased with your order) soak the plant pot and remove the whole plant and its soil in one place directly into the hole back firm and firm in well to ensure their are no air pockets. Water in. Should the weather be hot during planting further watering may be necessary. Otherwise simply enjoy and trim back old flowers head once they have gone over.
