Great point Jeff - I have been an advocate for that for a long time.
Everyone whould keep a notebook of information for reference. Included
in this is weather, moisture, dates of 1st bloom, last bloom, peak bloom,
good and bad acting iris and why - and so on. You can include dates of
sprays, digging, planting etc. It is a great help.
