How to Grow and Care for Don't Fix It Dwarf Iris:

- Watering: Water the Don't Fix It Dwarf Iris regularly, especially during dry spells. However, avoid excessive watering, as the plant prefers soil that is moist but well-drained. Overwatering can lead to root rot.
- Fertilization: Apply a balanced, slow-release fertilizer in early spring, just as the plant begins to show new growth. This helps promote strong blooms and healthy foliage.
- Maintenance: Deadhead spent flowers to encourage continuous blooming and maintain a tidy appearance. Once the blooms fade, cut back the foliage to about 3-4 inches after it dies back in late spring or early summer.
- Winter Care: In colder climates, protect the plant from freezing temperatures by applying a layer of mulch around the base. This ensures that the plant remains safe through the winter months and returns the following year.
