Select a Location:

Spacing:

After Blooming:

• After the Dutch iris flowers have finished blooming and the foliage turns yellow and begins to wither, you can cut back the leaves. Do not remove the foliage until it has naturally died back, as this allows the bulbs to store energy for the next year.
