Iris reticulata 'Alida' Bulb

Iris reticulata 'Alida' is a captivating dwarf iris variety, celebrated for its large, pale blue flowers adorned with intricate butter-yellow and white markings on each fall. Blooming from late winter to early spring, it brings a refreshing burst of colour to rock gardens, containers, and the front of borders. This compact perennial reaches a height of 10–15 cm (4–6 inches) and spreads approximately 5–10 cm (2–4 inches), making it ideal for small spaces. Thriving in full sun to partial shade, 'Alida' prefers well-drained soil and requires moderate watering during its active growth period, with drier conditions during dormancy. Easy to grow and low maintenance, it naturalises well, returning year after year to herald the arrival of spring.
