Description
Neomarica Gracilis 'Walking Iris' is an elegant strappy leaf plant that grows in a clump with long arching leaves and produces beautiful iris-like flowers in the summer.
The leaves are textured and green enough to look good even without the crowning flower, so Walking Iris makes a superb architectural spreading ground cover. She also looks great in a container on the deck and as a cut flower so you can see her pretty white and purple colours up close.
Might you be wondering about the name ‘Walking Iris’? Obviously it doesn’t go walking, instead, the name comes from her habit of growing plantlets in spent flower-heads and then dropping forward to root them into the soil below. This forms a new plant which carries on ‘walking’. Pretty amazing don’t you think?
Walking Iris is low maintenance and tough, tolerating the cold weather and drought once established.
This is a great value 8 pack of Neomarica Gracilis Walking Iris.

Let me kick off with watering.
Succulents don’t like a lot of water and long periods of drought won’t hurt yours one bit, they’re the best type of plant for forgetful folk, or those that are away from home a fair bit, so don’t feel bad if you haven’t given him a drink yet. One of the most common mistakes people make is watering them too much! The best potting mix for succulents is a well draining one. Using a good potting mix of porous soil for succulents is super important to prevent overwatering. Water your succulent when the soil is dry. Soak it thoroughly rather than giving it regular sips and always empty excess water from the saucer as it will rot the roots. If you’re struggling try one of our self-watering pots they make a plant killer look like a pro! In winter succulents need even less water. You can touch the soil each week and if it’s even a bit damp then leave it alone and try again the following week. Succulents need little moisture and although it seems cruel, a sure-fire way to kill your beauty is by watering it frequently. This will turn it to mush.
If in doubt, leave it without.
