As beautiful as Colorado itself, the Wild Iris can be found in the meadows of the back country. In Greek mythology, Iris was named the goddess of the rainbow and messenger of the gods. This lovely perennial was also chosen by France's King Louis VII to be his symbol of victory following the second Crusades. He called it the Fleur-de-lis.

    HOW TO PLANT IRIS SEEDS

    When To Plant

    Iris seeds do best if planted directly outdoors in the Fall.

    Where To Plant

    The Wild Iris only needs soil that is ordinary and moist, but well drained. They also do well in full sun.

    How To Plant

    The seeds should not be planted deeply; they just need to be compressed into the soil, as they need light to germinate.

    If planting in rows, then plant the seeds 15” to 20” apart.

    How To Care For the Iris

    These varieties of Iris seeds generally germinate in about 2-3 months. You can thin the seedlings to 15” to 20” apart after they emerge.

    Iris should be watered regularly, but they can tolerate dry conditions. It is not necessary to fertilize Iris.

    It generally takes about 120 days for the Iris to bloom after the seed is planted.
