I only once used a significant amount of steer manure in an iris bed.
Almost everything rotted out. It was way too hot from decomposition, loaded
with nasty bacteria, and salty to the point of stressing the iris. Maybe
someone else has had different experiences, but I will never again use steer
manure on my iris.
