Where do i harvest iris seed from?
The only way I have ever seen iris sold or propagated is by the rhizome. A very few of the water iris (either Siberian or Louisiana) can be seeded, but I think it is to early yet. They make rather large seed pods, where I have never seen these on beardeds.
Reply:IRIS HAVE BULBS NOT SEEDS JUST DIG UP A IRIS AFTER IT IS DEAD THEM GUYS ARE VERY HARDY YOU CAN CUT THEM IN HALFS AND THEY WILL GROW ON
Reply:Iris plants are bulbs, so you plant them as bulbs, and as the plants mature they will create more bulbs around them, and becomes thicker in an area, as they spread out. They best way to get them if from a neighbor who has a lot, or to buy them. As far as you know you can't harvest the seeds. You can only digs up the bulbs.
