Dutch Iris 'Lion King'
Iris hollandica
A dramatic, late spring beauty in burnished hues.
Blooms late spring
A favorite in our trials garden, ‘Lion King’ exhibits sophisticated purplish-brown standards and glowing ochre-golden falls veined in a deeper brown. Reaching heights of 22”, the flowers are reminiscent of brightly glowing torches. Plant in full to partial sun–wherever you need a bit of understated drama. Naturalizes readily and blooms in late spring.

Dutch Irises do best in full sun to partial shade. They require a well-drained soil. Water in well after planting, beyond that normal rainfall, should be sufficient. Follow the recommended planting depth per variety. Divide and replant irises about every 2-5 years. Bulbs should be kept cool until ready to plant and planted in fall at least a month before the ground freezes.
