Autumn 2007 Iris online ordering

These bulbs are available from Sept - November only

Pacific Coast Iris
These spectacular ‘orchid’ Iris always excite comment at Chelsea. They are easily grown in soil with a high humus content — ideal mixed with shrubs in light shade. More lime tolerant than at first thought. Do not allow the plants to dry out during their first year, until they are established.

Reticulata Irises
Frequently planted as annuals, these Bulbous Irises will grow on if planted deeply or in a fairly moist, shady situation. All the types listed below like chalky soils. keep dry in summer.


Delivery will be in the autumn. Click here to see our Terms of business.
