Often blooming around 'Mother's Day', Dutch Iris are good, long-lasting cut flowers and are ones that make nice clumps in the late spring garden; rather formal flowers that give wonderful linear form to the border; growing 18"-20" tall; hardy in zones 5-9. Long lasting blooms, lovely in bouquets and arrangements or containers. The blooms are 4 to 5 inches across. Plant 6 inches apart in fertile, sandy, well-drained soil; cover with 3 to 4 inches of soil.
