Spanish Iris are orchid-like in their beauty of form and color and are among 
the prettiest of all Spring flowers for cutting and garden decoration. 
Dutch Iris are very similar to the Spanish Iris but are larger and bloom a little 
earlier. 
Unlike the German Iris, both Spanish and Dutch Iris are grown from bulbs, 
not roots, and should be planted early in the Fall. They are easily grown and 
will do well either in the full sun or partial shade.
