ORTHROSANTHUS SEEDS

The Orthrosanthus genus, commonly known as Morning Iris, is a graceful and eye-catching member of the Iridaceae family. These clump-forming perennials are celebrated for their narrow, sword-like foliage and clusters of delicate, iris-like flowers in shades of blue, purple, or white, which bloom prolifically in spring and early summer. Orthrosanthus adds a touch of elegance and natural charm to borders, rock gardens, and Mediterranean-style plantings.

Native to South America and Australia, Orthrosanthus thrives in well-drained soils and sunny to partially shaded locations. These hardy plants are drought-tolerant once established, making them an excellent choice for low-maintenance and water-wise gardens. Popular species such as Orthrosanthus multiflorus and Orthrosanthus polystachyus are particularly admired for their vivid blooms and adaptability to a range of garden settings.

The Orthrosanthus genus combines beauty, resilience, and ecological value, making it a perfect choice for gardeners seeking colourful, easy-care plants that support pollinators and enhance sunny landscapes.
