How to Grow and Care for Better Together Tall Bearded Iris
- Planting: Choose a sunny spot with well-draining soil. Plant rhizomes with their tops just above the soil surface, spacing them 12-18 inches apart to allow for proper air circulation and growth.
- Watering: Water moderately, keeping the soil moist but not overly wet. Be mindful not to overwater, as iris rhizomes do not thrive in soggy soil.
- Fertilizing: Use a low-nitrogen, balanced fertilizer in early spring and again after blooming to encourage healthy growth and vibrant flowers.
