It's straight alfalfa, Doris - horse feed type.  I don't quite understand 
the problem with rabbit pellets, but they presumably contain other 
ingredients not beneficial to irises.  I prefer to use alfalfa meal 
rather than pellets.  It's cheaper and distributes more evenly when 
tilled into the soil.  Better yet, my irises seem to really LOVE an 
alfalfa/manure tea I make for them.
