Iris Harmony
Iris reticulata 'Harmony'
Specifications
Harmony is a diminutive and very early lavender-blue iris that grows from a bulb. It blooms with Snowdrops and Winter Wolf’s Bane, popping out of the ground in spring as soon as frosts become irregular and the ground warms a bit. Harmony’s display is brief, but if the bulbs are planted thickly and in quantity, they put on a memorable show. Give them a location in full sun where the soil is very well drained.
Deer Resistant
Note: Iris Harmony is resistant to deer, but rodents such as voles and gophers may eat the bulbs.

Planting Instructions
Iris reticulata requires well-drained soil and full sun, and it likes to be dry in summer. The bulbs perform best if planted with points up. After bloom, the narrow, grasslike foliage elongates, eventually standing 12–14 inches tall. It collapses and disappears by early summer.
| Depth of Planting Hole | 3 inches |
| Spacing | 2 inches apart |
