Reticulated Iris Bulbs

The Tiny Early Bloomers for Winter-to-Spring Magic

Why Choose Reticulated Iris?

• 🌸 Dazzling Winter-to-Spring Blooms: Brighten your garden with vibrant hues of blue-purple, violet, yellow, and white in late winter or early spring.

• 🌱 Compact & Space-Saving: Standing just 10-15cm tall (about half a palm size!), these mini irises are perfect for pots, borders, rock gardens, or dense ground cover.

• ❄️ Cold-Hardy Champions: Thrives in temperatures as low as -25°C—ideal for cool climates!

• 🌞 Low Maintenance: A fuss-free bulb that multiplies naturally and requires minimal care.

Key Features

✨ World’s Smallest Iris: A delicate fairy-like bloomer that’s among the earliest to greet spring.
✨ Self-Propagating: Bulbs split into offsets after flowering—replant them for more blooms next year!
✨ Versatile Planting: Perfect for containers, pathways, pondsides, rockeries, woodlands, or mass planting.

Plant Overview

• Origin: Native to Turkey, the Caucasus, and surrounding regions.

• Height: 10-15cm—adorably petite!

• Flowering Season: Late winter to early spring (dormant in summer).

• Climate Zones: Suitable for all zones except tropical; thrives best in cool to cold climates.

Planting Guide

📅 When to Plant: October to December (fall planting for spring blooms).

🌱 How to Plant:

• Depth: Plant bulbs 5cm deep (shallow planting prevents rot).

• Spacing:

  • Ground: 5-7cm apart (about a fist’s width).

  • Pots: Cluster bulbs closely for a lush display.

• Soil: Well-draining mix; add gravel to improve drainage.

☀️ Light: Full sun to partial shade (4+ hours of direct light post-sprouting).

Care Tips

✅ Water Wisely: Avoid watering before sprouts emerge—overwatering risks bulb rot.
✅ No Pruning Needed: Never cut back foliage—let leaves photosynthesize to nourish the bulb.
✅ Summer Dormancy: Leaves wither in heat? Don’t panic! Keep bulbs dry and cool—avoid rain/moisture to prevent rot.

After-Flowering Care

1. Deadhead Spent Blooms: Snip faded flowers to redirect energy.

2. Feed Gently: Apply slow-release fertilizer to support bulb health.

3. Save Offsets: Divide and replant offsets in autumn for future blooms.

Perfect For

• 🏡 Urban Gardeners: Thrives in pots on balconies or windowsills.

• 🌿 Rock Garden Enthusiasts: Adds pops of color to rocky landscapes.

• 🌳 Woodland Gardens: Naturalizes beautifully under trees or along streams.

Pro Tips

⚠️ Avoid These Mistakes:

• Overwatering dormant bulbs.

• Planting too deep (keep it shallow!).

• Cutting foliage prematurely (no "haircuts" for bulbs!).
