The Blue Note is a variety of a reticulate iris that develops adorable, long, vividly blue petals. The blue-navy-blue perianths with a white dot create a spectacular show among the grey-blue leaves. The compact size of the presented plant allow you to form colourful carpets in the most important garden parts. They can be planted at the front of the lower flower beds. They will quickly rejuvenate the rock gardens after the winter. This variety is also perfectly suited for cultivation in planters. The 20 cm tall Blue Note irises play their part of one of the first spring flowers naturally, as they bloom in February and March already. We recommend to save some space for them and enjoy them in spring.

The tiny, charming reticulate, also known as botanical, irises are bulbous plants that should be planted in autumn, preferably at the end of September and at the beginning of October. All they need is a humous, aerated, lime, permeable soil that is medium compact. They like sunny situations, but would also thrive partial shade.  It does not require watering due to its vegetation period during which the soil is still moist after the winter. The reticulate iris belongs to the plants highly resistant to diseases and you will only seldom find pests on them.  We recommend to cover the fresh plantings with a thicker mulch layer, while the older ones only in the colder regions. You may also feed the bulbs in early spring with a dose of an organic fertilizer. We recommend to dig out the bulbs every three to four years in order to let them rest. This measure will ensure abundant blooming every season.
