Description

Start Home-Garden Iris (Iris spp.) from seed for garden borders and beds. A site with full sun and moderately fertile, well-drained soil supports steady early development.

Prepare a seed-starting area and sow when conditions reach the recommended germination range. Water moderately and prevent the soil from becoming waterlogged, then remove spent flowers as needed to keep the planting tidy.
