The wild Iris reticulata occurs in and around the Caucasus mountains. This wild Iris has been extensively cultivated, resulting in over a dozen different named varieties, most in beautiful shades of blue and purple. The Iris reticulata is the species of Dwarf Iris which is most often sold commercially.
Iris reticulata bloom very early in the spring. The flower is quite large in relationship to the plant as a whole, and has a wonderful fragrance, somewhat like a violet. They are very easy to grow: not only will they come back year after year, but, given half a chance, they will even multiply. What more could you ask for? |
