Today while digging irises up for shipping, I noticed granules of
fertilizer still in the ground that I had used last fall when planting
irises. With all the rain we had this past winter, the fertilizer had not
yet broken down. We had a beautiful bloom season after getting a late
start, but poor increases. My thinking is, the irises didn't get any
fertilizer.
Would appreciate any input as to why fertilizer would not break down. We
use a 6-20-20.
It is nice to be back online and read everyone's messages. Thanks to John
for keeping the communication lines open and for the insight to start the
new iris-talk. Thanks, John.

I've had these in the past. As far as I know this is just the shells
remaining of the fertiliser. The fertiliser itself has been used, but the
shells never disappear.
