Gardening Know How Questions & Answers - https://questions.gardeningknowhow.comAbout 2 years ago we planted over 100 dutch iris bulbs in about a 60′ area next to my garage by our fire pit, facing east.

Dutch iris are often treated as annuals. After one blooms, the main bulb is done blooming but lives on to nourish bulblets. These baby bulbs take several years to reach blooming size. Here is more information: https://www.longfield-gardens.com/article/All-About-Dutch-Iris [1]
