I'd like to know the secret too!
Even here in central NM with my yard in USDA Zone 7b, long summers, and so
on. If I plant an Iris (spring, summer, fall - doesn't matter), it is
usually going to be two or three years before I see it flower (I consider
myself lucky if they flower the next spring).
Maybe I don't feed them enough, or maybe it's because I like the healthier
look of a plant growing in the rather "poor" mineral soils here as apposed
to the soft, lush, floppy look of a plant growing in rich compost??????
