Griff, is it not possible to just plant the irises then apply the  Preen and 
water it in?
 
I'm sorry if this is an idiotic question, but I don't use the stuff.  The 
only preemergent I use is Surflan, and that on the gravel  parking area. Very 
effective.
 
Have we heard of anyone actually having trouble using ANY pre-emergent on  
newly set rhizomes, trouble clearly linked to the use of the chemical, or  is 
the received wisdom on this actually largely theoretical? Do you  know?
