How to Grow and Care for Maglissa Dwarf Iris
- Planting: Choose a sunny to partially shaded spot with well-draining soil. Plant rhizomes in late summer or early fall, ensuring they are just below the soil surface. Space them 6-8 inches apart for proper airflow and growth.
- Watering: Water lightly after planting to establish roots. Once established, water sparingly, as this iris thrives in dry conditions.
