Bright yellow flowers of Iris danfordiae are some of the first to bloom in spring, as early as January. A small species may its brightness blooms make a big impression.
The fragrant flowers on short stems, gradually lengthen to around 30cm as the flowers fade. Perfect for planting in rockeries or the front of borders.
Height: 15cm . Spread: 7cm .
Plant Iris danfordiae bulbs in late autumn, at a depth of approximately twice their own height. Choose a position in full sun in moist, free draining soil. To create a natural effect, cast the bulbs across the area and plant them where they land. Alternatively, plant bulbs in deep containers of loam based compost such as John Innes No. 2 and grow on in a greenhouse or on cool sunny windowsills for an early indoor display.
