Pruning Tips
No pruning required, you can let the flowers die back themselves. Deadhead to encourage further blooming.
Wildlife Value
Iris are attractive to bees, and can be an important source of early pollen. Especially good for long-tongued bees like the Common Carder Bumblebee.
Positioning
Plant in full sun, iris can grow in exposed as well as sheltered positions.
Water
Keep the soil slightly moist year-round; you may need to water, but only in spells of dry weather.
Soil
Use a well-draining soil; neutral or slightly alkaline is best.
Food
Feed with a liquid fertiliser or by mulching in autumn when you plant the bulbs, and/or just after flowering. Avoid high-nitrogen feeds which encourage foliage rather than flowers to grow.
Pet-safe
No, irises are toxic to cats, dogs and humans - though not to birds, horses and livestock.
Sprouts Top Tips
For a striking display, plant Iris bulbs in groups of 10-15. Pair with other early bloomers like crocuses or snowdrops for a vibrant spring garden.
