Re: Culture: digging irises up


I had to move one of my unknowns only a few days ago, it was falling 
over and uprooting itself because the soil was too shallow in that 
spot.  I am hoping it wasn't too soon to dig it up and move it, but I 
didn't really have a choice.  I only had two fans and one bloomstalk 
from it, and only one rhizome when I dug it up.  This is my pretty 
mauve-pink one.  Hope it survives.  (Hope I can get someone in the 
know to come see it when it blooms next year so maybe I can find out 
what it is!)

As soon my usual digging time comes (usually July or Aug.) I will 
have some DOVER BEACH to share.  The clump in the back flowerbed is 
just too crowded for words, and I only thinned it a couple of years 
ago!  Be warned, DOVER BEACH is lively!
