Even after I get big fat rhizomes from suttons when they come up in the
spring they are little. I fertilize and God knows New England gets enough
water. I think the western iris have to store water in their rhizomes so
grow fat with it and the eastern are little as they have no need to store
water. just plant them and they will grow. Throw in some superphosphate and
lime and step on them like walter Moores says and they will do okay.
