Iris Reticulata ‘J.S. Dijt’ is a charming dwarf bulbous perennial, prized for its richly coloured, fragrant blooms that appear in early spring. This compact variety reaches a height of 10-15cm (4-6 inches), making it an excellent choice for rock gardens, borders, containers, and woodland edges where its vibrant flowers can be fully appreciated.

The striking deep purple blooms, which measure around 8cm across, are adorned with intricate golden-yellow markings on the falls, creating a striking contrast that adds elegance to the early-season garden. Its narrow, mid-green, grass-like foliage emerges alongside the flowers and continues growing after blooming, helping to replenish the bulb for the following season.

Thriving best in full sun to partial shade, Iris Reticulata ‘J.S. Dijt’ prefers well-drained soil, making it ideal for areas with gritty, sandy, or loamy conditions. It is hardy, low-maintenance, and naturalises well, meaning it will return and multiply each year, creating a spectacular early-spring display.

Perfect for adding a pop of colour to the garden after winter, this beautifully fragrant iris is a must-have for any spring bulb collection, delighting both gardeners and pollinators alike.
