Ben R. Hager, "Culture and Propagation" The World of Irises, p.315.
"In planning a program for fertilizing irises, a chemical analysis of your
soil is helpful. However, a standard formula for general use is 6-10-6. If
your supplier cannot furnish this formula you can combine the separate
components, ammonium nitrate, superphosphate, and potash, into a comparable
formula. Plants need all of these three major elements. It is a mistake to
starve plants of nitrogen entirely, even though overuse can cause soft growth
and subsequent rot."
