How to Grow and Care for Orange Daiquiri Dwarf Iris:
- Planting: Select a sunny location with well-drained soil for the best growth. Plant bulbs 3-4 inches deep and space them 4-6 inches apart to provide adequate room for growth and ensure proper air circulation.
- Watering: Water the Orange Daiquiri Dwarf Iris regularly, especially during dry spells, but avoid overwatering. Ensure the soil is well-drained to prevent waterlogging, as the iris prefers moist but not soggy conditions.
- Fertilization: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring when new growth begins. This helps promote healthy blooms and strong growth throughout the season.
- Maintenance: Deadhead spent blooms regularly to encourage new flowers and maintain a tidy appearance. Once the foliage begins to die back in late spring or early summer, trim it back to about 3-4 inches above the ground.
- Winter Care: In colder climates, mulch around the base of the plant to protect it from freezing temperatures. This will help ensure the plant remains healthy and blooms the following season.
