【Full Product Description】

Iris tectorum, the well‑known roof iris, is a classic hardy perennial iris species originating from Asia. It features flat broad sword‑shaped green leaves and elegant crested spring blossoms.

This shade‑tolerant flower commonly grows on rocky slopes, wasteland and shaded woodland edges. It performs wonderfully for decorating dim garden corners, rock gaps and flower bed edges. The sturdy plant requires minimal care and can endure seasonal frost. Its spring‑time blooms attract local pollinating insects. Our iris tectorum seeds are gathered from healthy mature plants; cold‑moist stratification treatment is required to break natural seed dormancy before sowing.

【Detailed Step‑by‑Step Planting Guide】

Best Sowing Season

Sow seeds in early spring or cool autumn. Low‑temperature autumn conditions help complete natural seed dormancy‑breaking.

Seed Pre‑Treatment

Soak seeds inside room‑temperature clean water for 24‑48 hours and replace water every single day
Mix damp seeds with moist fine river sand
Carry out cold‑moist stratification at 3‑5℃ for 30‑40 days

Soil Requirement

Pick loose, fertile, fast‑draining sandy‑loam soil. Add organic compost for nutrition. Avoid heavy water‑logged clay soil that easily triggers root rot.

Sowing Operation

Bury seeds 0.25‑0.4 inch deep with thin fine topsoil. The planting position suits soft partial‑shade or gentle morning sunlight.

Germination & Seedling Care

Keep top‑soil mildly moist without standing water. Seeds germinate within 14‑21 days under 18℃‑21℃. Thin crowded seedlings and reserve enough growing spacing.

Mature Plant Daily Maintenance

Iris tectorum prefers soft partial‑shade. Water thoroughly during long‑lasting dry spells. Trim old withered leaves after blooming to keep tidy foliage clumps.

【Shipping & Seed Storage Suggestions】

Packaging & Shipping Protection

All Iris tectorum seeds adopt sealed moisture‑proof packaging to guard seeds from dampness, mould and collision damage in transit.

Long‑Time Seed Storage Method

Store leftover seeds inside cool, dry, dark and ventilated space. Seal‑pack and refrigerate seeds for long‑term preservation, stay away from high‑heat and humid air.

Post‑Receiving Planting Tips

Complete sowing within three months after receiving for optimal germination. Apply soft sprinkler watering after sowing and prevent heavy rain from flushing away tiny seeds.
