A beautiful addition to any yard or garden, the Butterfly Iris features gorgeous white blooms alongside grass-like leaves for a combination you can’t help but love. This incredible perennial prefers lighting that falls anywhere from full sun to partial shade, so make sure you have a sunny spot in your yard to plant it for optimal growth and health. With flowering possible from Spring to early Fall, the 2-3” white blooms of the Butterfly Iris will catch your eye every time you walk through your enchanting landscape work. Grow the Dietes grandiflora in the ground or even in a container that is at least 3 gallons so you can bring it in during the colder months and still have room to grow it; either way this humidity and drought resistant plant will add style and grace to your space.

Shipping:

Shipping live plants sometimes has its challenges when dealing with inclement weather but we strive to have every single order shipped out on their scheduled shipping date. Most orders will be scheduled to ship within 1-2 weeks of ordering. Because a plant needs TLC we only ship out on Mondays-Wednesdays to ensure the plants aren’t stationed somewhere over the weekend with no water or sunlight.

When to Ship:

We can ship out plants at anytime of the year pruned or not pruned, cold or not cold. Each plant’s durabilty is different so we recommend having them shipped in their designated season but we will still ship your plant to you earlier if you choose so.

Returns:

Because plants are perishable they cannot be returned without prior permission. We work hard to ensure all plants arrive healthy, but on rare occasions issues with the plant health upon delivery do arise.

Every single shipped plant is healthy upon departing our facility but if a plant is received in poor health contact us immediately so that we can assess the problem and work on saving the plant. We will first need a photo of the plant to start a claim. If we determine your plant cannot be recovered we will send you a replacement immediately. If notified of the plants health within 4 days we will send a replacement 100% free of charge.

If you determine the plant not to be healthy 4 days after delivery you can contact us and we will issue a 50% store credit.

30 days after delivery we cannot be held responsible for the current health of the plant.

Questions & Answers

Have a Question?

Ask a Question
  • What cause the grass-like stems to turn brown and why won't the blooms open any more?

    Grass-like stems turning brown on a butterfly iris can be due to underwatering, excessive heat, or poor soil drainage. Browning may also indicate natural aging of the plant. Blooms failing to open could result from a lack of sufficient light or inconsistent watering, both of which are necessary for healthy flowering.

  • will the plant flower every year

    Yes, butterfly irises bloom every year, typically in spring and sometimes again in summer. With proper care, including adequate sunlight, watering, and periodic pruning of dead stems, this hardy plant will continue to produce flowers annually.

  • What is the best fertilizer to use on my Butterfly Iris plants?

    18-6-8 Nutri-cote, its actually the fertilizer we sell. 

  • Does it flower?

    Yes, Butterfly Iris (commonly known as Dietes or African Iris) produces beautiful flowers. The blooms are typically white or pale yellow with intricate patterns and markings, resembling butterflies—hence the name. These flowers appear primarily in spring and summer, and in warmer climates, they can bloom multiple times throughout the year.

  • Are they good for Las Vegas climate

    Yes, the butterfly iris (Dietes grandiflora) can be a suitable plant for the Las Vegas climate, as it handles heat well. However, it requires consistent watering to prevent drying out and should ideally be planted where it receives morning sun with some afternoon shade to protect it from intense desert heat.
