I have done this last year as an experiment on aTB (planted the rootball from a
pot into the garden) This year the iris absolutely took off growthwise and
turned into a mega clump from a single last season/year planting!!!
I have four more TB iris this year that are now ready to do the same. They are
growing in 8 inch pots now and I will plant out in one of the iris beds soon.
The plants are:
IN THE MOOD (Schreiner 94)
FEATURE ATTRACTION (Schreiner 94)
CASCADE SPRINGS (Schreiner 94)
CELEBRATION SONG (Schreiner 93)
