Relative to the wood chip/bark mulch, I only know that a friend used those materials extensively one year, and I've never seen (nor had he, a veteran irisarian) so much rot and scorch in a garden. The timing might be co-incidental, but it's enough to make me want to avoid those materials forever. I wonder, though, why you want to have a mulch in your iris beds in growing season. Having the newspaper with the bark covering seems to me like an invitation for keeping the rhizomes wet and thus open to rot.
