Notes
'Autumn Princess' Dutch iris (Iris hollandica 'Autumn Princess') is a bulb. It is hardy to USDA zone 5, or down to -20°F (-29°C). This plant likes full or part sun and average moisture. The flowers have bronzey red flags, rusty orange falls, and purple highlights. Plant it where the soil drains well and the bulbs can bake in summer while dormant. You can overplant it with ground covers like thyme, Sedum, and Delosperma.
Pairs well with Gladiolus, Feverfew, and Mountain mint.
