How to Grow and Care for Mango Mojito Tall Bearded Iris
Plant the Mango Mojito Tall Bearded Iris in well-drained soil with full sun exposure to encourage the best growth and blooming. It thrives with at least 6 hours of direct sunlight per day, which helps produce vibrant and healthy flowers. This iris prefers slightly acidic to neutral soil and requires good drainage to avoid root rot. Space the plants about 12 to 18 inches apart to ensure proper air circulation and healthy growth.
