How to Grow and Care for Franky Dwarf Iris
- Planting: Select a sunny or partially shaded location with well-draining soil. Plant rhizomes in late summer or early fall, positioning them 1-2 inches below the soil surface. Space rhizomes 6-8 inches apart for optimal growth and air circulation.
- Watering: Water gently after planting to help establish roots. Once established, the Franky Dwarf Iris is drought-tolerant and requires minimal watering, except during extended dry periods.
- Fertilizing: Apply a balanced fertilizer in early spring before new growth begins, and again after blooming to support healthy growth and vibrant flowers.
- Maintenance: Remove spent blooms and any yellowing foliage to keep the plant looking neat. Divide the clumps every 3-4 years in late summer to prevent overcrowding and maintain strong growth.
