These are the fastest places for someone without an iris-oriented library
to find info.
Jay, you answered a question I was too shy to ask. I have lost to
rot about 25% of my new iris planted last year. So I decided I would
purchase again this summer but leave them dormant over the winter and
plant next spring. I was wondering if I could do this (I know tulips
etc. croak) But I'm going to keep my unplanted iris at approx 45 degrees
over the winter with dahlias etc. and see if a full season of growth will
stop the rot.
Welcome to iris-l. Ginny in so. ont.
