A fan of leaves (a rhizome) produces only one bloomstalk, and then dies.
"Bloomout" is the term used when a rhizome blooms, but produces no increases.
Sometimes, it takes a while for increase to show up after bloom, but other
times increase never comes, and the rhizome simply rots away. Bloom is great,
but without increase, it is the last bloom you see.

I don't understand what 'bloom out' is? Why is it bad if the iris bloom?
