Don't know about iris, but one acre will grow 10,000 burley tobacco plants. ;-)
I can't remember the spacing exactly, but a tractor row is something like 30 to 36 inches. Seems like plants were about a foot apart in the row.
Not sure that helps you any, Linda, but I thought it was interesting that you came up with the same number that was the estimate for tobacco plant density!
From the other Linda in hot, sweltering, humid, but dry as dust east Tennessee.
