Good info Jill, thank you. The new property that we moved to has many iris fans around and about, but I've seen no blooms since my arrival in late June. I also was given a big rubbermaid container full of what appear to be dead ones...LOL! I'll have to pop into the iris forum and get some background on these lovelies. Those Siberian that pollyk posted a picture of are GORGEOUS. I have wetlands and drylands - I just don't know if my pocketbook can bear another plant love affair...hehe.

Plant those "dead" ones if the rhizome still seems to have some substance to it... they may surprise you! Irises are remarkably tough.
