Description

The Iris hollandica Mix is an essential option for landscapers and gardeners seeking a harmonious blend of rich blues, purples, yellows, and whites in late spring. This curated mix provides staggered yet coordinated colour impact that enhances borders, naturalised drifts, and cutting gardens. Growing to a consistent 50–60cm in height, each bulb produces elegant, sword-like foliage and graceful blooms ideal for structured planting or looser schemes. The mix offers visual rhythm and diversity, particularly valuable in institutional or public space landscaping projects in Ireland.

Use this mix in sun-drenched positions with free-draining soil, where their reliable performance and low maintenance needs are appreciated. Plant en masse along borders, pathways, or in between low-growing spring bulbs such as Anemone blanda, Muscari, or Scilla mischtschenkoana for a layered look. Their uniform foliage makes an excellent foil for emerging perennials, and their upright blooms provide architectural interest before summer takes over.

While Dutch irises are not heavily pollinated, including them alongside more nectar-rich spring species boosts biodiversity and creates a visually cohesive and environmentally considered planting scheme.
