I have 4 weeks to promote the best growth to my new rhizomes. I've been told by one, that it would be good to give them the same growth nutrient as Roses...Miracle Grow to get them off their feet. :o) Spray them with a solution of miracle grow as with Roses... Discontinue it at least a week before frost. I also have some Iris that have a yellowing and I know they need some kind of support. I guess after losing so many last winter I need your advice. One other thing...would it help to put a mesh (as they use for growing grass)over the rhizome when we leave in Oct.? Would it possibly give them a little protection in the Spring if it freezes on them again, as it has for two years? I am a problem case! Ahhh! Thank you!
