The dwarf iris is a wonderfully little guy that blooms early spring and gives the illusion of little butterflies hovering just above the ground. They come in many gorgeous colors, elegant forms, and distinct markings that the dwarf iris is often a welcome sign that spring is on it’s way.
Dwarf iris plants like to be planted in full sun, but will tolerate some partial shade.Â
Dwarf iris flowers grow best in a well-draining soil. Spread 2″ of peat moss and blend with existing soil to help with drainage.Â
Dwarf iris bulbs like to be fertilized right after being planted. Usually put fertilizer 2″ below the bulb in order to promote rooting.Â
We suggest Espoma Organic Bulb-tone
Dwarf iris flowers are a welcome sight in late winter and early spring. They add a great pop of color and a sign that spring is coming.Â
Plant dwarf iris bulbs about 2 – 3 inches in the soil with the pointed end facing up.Â
Dwarf iris bulbs don’t need as much space as the bearded iris. Space them out about 4 – 5 inches a part.Â
Hydrangeas do well in partially shaded areas like under a large tree or on the side of a house. They like to receive sun in the morning, and the partial shade is in the heat of the afternoon. In Colorado, too much full sun will cause them to get sunburned.
Hydrangea shrubs need to have well-draining soils that is rich in organic matter. Most Colorado soils will benefit from the addition of peat moss and compost that helps retain moisture. The pH determines the colors of the blooms. Acidic soil will give you blue flowers, and alkaline soil gives you pink flowers. Â
If hydrangea shrubs are given too much high-nitrogen fertilizer, they may grow full and lush, but there will be fewer flowers. If the soil is rich, fertilizer is not needed. Otherwise, a light application in March or April may be warranted.
Make sure to water your hydrangea shrubs regularly. Those big blooms require a lot of water to stay lush and full. About one inch of water throughout the week is ideal. If they receive more sun give them at least two inches during the hotter summer days.
