Do you have rot problems with the chip mulch?  I am trying to grow  plants in 
such poor conditions.  Poor quality soil hauled in and placed  in very 
shallow beds on a very rocky base.  Mulch would certainly help  retain moisture & 
prevent weeds but I have feared rot etc if I mulched  around the iris
