  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.
