DUTCH IRIS 
Dutch bulbous Iris should 
be planted in early October 
and, in a cold climate, given 
a little protection in winter. 
They are best planted in a 
sunny location in groups of a 
dozen or so bulbs. The flow- 
ers, in their bright blues, 
eolden yellows and glistening 
whites, make a fine show in 
the garden, and also make 
long-lasting bouquets for the 
house. They flower from 
early May until June.
