Iridariy - a luxurious garden of irises

The most exclusive design using irises is the creation of iridarium. Spectacular, elegant decoration of the garden, which does not require special care.

An iris garden is similar to a cereal herb garden, a conifer garden or a mountaineering garden, a garden dedicated to these flowers. But, since the image of this flower is unique, the iridarium itself is not similar to other varieties of “gardens”.



Iridarium is usually not very large. The best sizes are small or medium. The optimal size is approximately the size of a large flower bed. For iridarium, a whole collection of irises is used - take different varieties, different colors. Those who are fond of breeding these flowers usually collect a whole collection. And iridarium is just a great opportunity to adequately present it.

Irises are planted with curtains with sufficient spaces between them, as they grow strongly. Plants in no case are planted in rows - curtains are asymmetrically arranged, like plants on an alpine slide. Somewhere there may be only one curtain, somewhere three at once, etc.

Between plantings, a sprinkle of white or gray gravel or pebbles is made. Against the background of light backfill, blue glass pebbles can be scattered. The iridarium itself can be located on the lawn without a clearly delineated border, and can be overlaid along the edge with small stones.

Also iridarium can be placed in a large garden module or on the retaining wall. In addition to irises, no other plants are planted in the "iridary", except for cereals, but even then it can be no more than 2-3 curtains, and they are planted so that irises are among the cereals. Too often, flowers should not be planted, the filling between them should be visible.

Decorate iridarium with ceramic or forged products (vessels, containers, tapestries, bridges) and figurines, or beautiful snags, which can simply be picturesquely decomposed in certain places of iridarium. Sometimes enough and one spectacular snag, which in combination can be a bench. Figures and decorations are of great importance, since irises have a certain flowering period, and then only foliage will be present in the composition.
