The Dwarf Iris 'Pauline', 'Iris reticulata', a fall planted bulb, is a dainty dwarf iris which originally came from such areas as Turkey and the Caucasus. These Irises are cultivated on a fairly large scale. The slightly fragrant flower is relatively large and the flower color ranges from pale blue to violet-purple. Pauline blooms very early in the spring. They are easy grow and they will come back year after year. They are good for rock gardens, under shrubs and trees, in beds, borders, and containers and for indoor forcing. They need a well drained soil.
