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.
