Lorraine: you'll have had lots of answers by the time you get mine, but I
wanted to say, watch out for bone meal if you have dogs around. They will
keep looking for thtat bone they are sure has to be there. I heartily
recommend compost, whether it's home-grown or bought, particularly for clay
soil (she says, surveying her adobe soil). Can't go wrong with the stuff.

Sorry I'm only just getting back to all who answered my set of questions,
a week or so ago, regarding transplanting, deadheading, saving pods, etc.
Thanks for all the great ideas. I do, though, have another question
concerning transplanting, (which is something I'm going to start soon,
as here in South Carolina, our Irises are done blooming).
What should I add to the soil as I start transplanting the moved rhizomes?
My soil now is dry, hard clay. Should I also add some kind of "booster"
to the soil as I transplant (Bone Meal?)?
I am still waiting for my pods to dry out. Its been about 2-3 weeks and they
still look as green as ever!!
Looking forward to hearing from you, and thanks again for all your help.
