She can't go to the sale, but I will be buying for her. :-)
So you think that working in the Allfalfa pellets and bone meal
will get rid of what ever bores are still in the ground?
Or is there another purpose to this mixture???
In the mean time we have dug up all the iris and composted them.
I was assuming that there was no hope for them, since I found about 3 dozen
bores in the rhizomes and in the stalks. It was pretty messy. :-(
Is this a good assumption?
Thanks for your help!
