new to iris growing


Thanks to everyone who replied

I will be living just north of Toronto, Ontario, zone 5, I think

The soil is "new subdivision clay" and I was going to simply add 
triple mix, peat moss, and aged cattle manure to prepare a number of 
beds, but was wondering if there was anything else I should add for 
iris - a bit of sand for drainage?

I found McMillen's Iris who sell bare root iris' located at 
www.execulink.com/~iris/  Can you direct me to other suppliers

With it being new beds I am also toying with having raised beds to 
allow for an earlier growing season. Can I do this with Iris as well?

I have only been a member here for a couple of days and really enjoy 
the comraderie
