Super recommendations on beautiful flower varieties including Iris, Cardamine, and Pulsatilla

Iris
M.denudata is one among my favorites, once established you'll get a dense covering of natural white super fragrant flowers.
Cultivation tips for magnolias, they have shelter from strong winds and just like the sun, but can tolerate partial shade, soil ph should be neutral, the soil must be deep and must have good water retention, but not spongy. Best time to plant is in late spring
Cardamine
Varieties that are excellent for selecting from early spring are C.pratensis, the subtle pink reminder the cuckoo flower mix beautifully with bluebells. These splendid flowers grow naturally but I like better to grow my very own.
Cardamine cultivation, they only love the sun but also can thrive in semi-shade. they will tolerate a good range of Soil ph (Acidic through to Alkali) but the soil must be moist or wet. Propagations tips, propagate from seed in spring or by division in autumn.
Pulsatilla
Varieties good for cutting are P.vulgaris or P.vernalis. These amazing pasque flowers are very exotic and have horny purple coloring, there are other colors available, but I prefer the purple.
Cultivation, they have the sun and maybe slightly temperamental in shade conditions, the soil must be drained calcareous (containing chalk).
Arctotis Fastuosa – monarch of the veldt
This bright orange fleabane with black markings on the petals and a chocolate center is one among my favorites, this variety lasts about twice as long in water as a marigold
Conditioning, strip off rock bottom leaves. Cultivation, grow them in super drained sandy soil in nonshady conditions.
