Florists love Dutch iris as they have strong, straight stems and exquisite flowers that look great in bouquets. Gardeners love them too, because they are robust and reliable, standing up well to low temperatures and coming back year after year. Their late spring and early summer flowers are also perfect for filling the gap between the last of the tulips and the start of the summer perennials.
