Hi all-
Decadance grows slowly, but after 3 years made a nice clump-bloomed very well and then proceeded to go almost dormant. Now almost 2 years later it has again made a fair sized clump and I assume will bloom this spring. So 2 blooms in 5 years does not sound good to me. My soil and summer dry, hot, humid weather is hard on many iris, but the good ones bloom every year. It is short, bunchy, top heavy and bud count is at most 5 per stalk in my growing conditions. It is a beautiful flower with less than perfect growth habits.

Decadence is moving up the awards ladder rapidly. It grows very poorly here in Alabama and I have been told that is grows poorly in Missouri. Is anyone else 
having trouble growing Decadence? Is anyone having great
success growing Decadence?

Here in Alabama Decadence falls apart in the
Winter and nearly disappears. Then, in Spring it looks as if someone has
planted iris seed that are just coming up. The rhizomes are small and the
leaves are small.

Hmm, I have it but it hasn't bloomed. Wonder what sort of soil, etc. it
likes? Did it grow up in a desert?

I have lost it once. Trying again.

A lot of Australian iris don't like my garden.
