Ixia 'Mixture' (Ships in Spring)

African Corn Lily

Ixia Mix, also known as Corn Lily, produces tall spikes of star-like blooms in shades of pink, yellow, and white, each opening to reveal contrasting center eyes. These delicate flowers thrive in hot, sunny locations and bloom in late spring, adding vibrant color to garden beds and floral arrangements. This variety prefers well-drained soil and is best suited for warmer climates (zones 8–10). In colder regions, it is often treated as an annual, with corms planted in spring and lifted in fall. Ixia is excellent for attracting butterflies and works well in containers or cut flower displays.

Growing and Maintenance Tips for Ixia 'Mixture' (Ships in Spring)

Planting: Plant corms in early spring after the last frost, 3 to 5 inches deep and 3 inches apart, with the pointed end facing up. For a natural look, plant in clusters rather than rows.
Location: Full sun is essential—Ixias need at least 6 hours of direct light daily to bloom well.
Soil: Well-drained, sandy or loamy soil with a slightly acidic to neutral pH (6.0–7.0). Add grit or compost to improve drainage.
Watering: Water after planting and keep soil lightly moist during active growth. Once foliage yellows, reduce watering—corms prefer dry summer dormancy.
Temperature: Hardy in USDA zones 8–10. In cooler zones, lift corms in fall and store in a dry, frost-free place.
Fertilization: Apply a balanced fertilizer when shoots emerge and again at bud formation. Avoid overfeeding.
Pruning: Deadhead spent blooms to encourage more flowers. Allow foliage to die back naturally to feed the corm.
Propagation: Multiplies by offsets. Lift and divide corms in fall after dormancy.
Pest & Disease: Generally pest-free. Good drainage prevents rot.
