Northern Blue Flag Iris seed (Iris versicolor) - perennial – 50 seeds- perfect for fall/spring planting

Late spring blooming irises. Virtually carefree once planted. Great for naturalizing problem areas. Listing is for 50 seeds.

Planting instructions: Direct sow iris seeds on the surface of the soil in a sunny spot with well-drained soil and at least 6 hours of sunlight per day. In Northern regions, seeds can be direct sown in fall and will germinate in the late spring or early summer. You can also store seeds in moist sand in the refrigerator for 60-90 days then plant on the surface of the soil in peat pots. If not direct sown in fall they will require cold stratification.

Cold Stratify Seeds: Step by Step Process. Place a 1/4 cup of sand (or more) in a mixing bowl. Add your desired seed amount to the sand. Place sand/seed mixture in a ziploc bag and seal. Label the variety and date clearly on the bag. Place in the refrigerator at least 1 month before planting.
