All dwarf iris are pretty in their own right, but Iris ‘Eyecatcher’ can certainly compete with the best. The flowers have a delicate look to them, the petals are patterned with rich blue and yellow stripes and dark blue spotting.
It is ideal for late winter, pushing through the cold soil to brighten the garden. Iris ‘Eyecatcher’ is a lovely dwarf variety for pots, rockeries or front of border.
Height: 20cm (8″). Spread 8cm (3″).
Plant Dutch Iris bulbs in autumn, at a depth of approximately twice their own height and 10cm (4″) apart. Choose a position in full sun on any 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.
