MDB – Miniature Dwarf Bearded Irises
In this group you will find the smallest, miniature bearded irises with the height of up to 20 cm. They usually bloom together with SDB irises, from late April to mid May. They come from botanical forms of Iris pumila. They love sunny habitats and free-draining soils and are therefore ideal for rock gardens planting. They require no care and are dry- and frost-resistant.
