Purple Flowers That Create Eye-Popping Appeal

4. The dwarf Iris grows in pine forests

The beautiful dwarf Iris is native to eastern parts of the country and usually grows in dry pine forests. The dwarf iris only grows to about 6 inches in height. The violet blooms are like the larger irises, consisting of three sepals that face downward and three upright petals. A fuzzy crest on the sepals is a distinguishing characteristic. They bloom in early spring. You can grow them from bulbs, preferably in a location with good light and well-drained soil.
