And many of her earlier introductions have to be amended with lime to live in
my region. Many "difficult to grow" irises can be grown beautifully with a
good side dressing of lime. Or, if you put your "lime lovers" together when
planting, till in a little extra lime in this part of your bed. It's the
only way I could grow RUFFLED BALLET which was born in limestone laced
Crystal City, MO. (I lived about 10 miles from Roderick at the time and
didn't know.)
