Bobby,
This is going to be different from most, because I am outside the
regions known to support Bearded Irises. For some reason, the sandy soil
here is fatal to Bearded Irises, so I grow some Rebloomers in pots that are
filled with a great potting mix that is sold at Dinkins Store in Dunnellon,
FL. Without Dinkins, I don't think I could grow Irises...
I do have some Louisiana Irises and some plants of Iris virginica that
are growing in kiddie pools. Those kiddie pools, which are sunk into the
ground, are filled with a mix of soil [sand here] and Canadian peat moss.
