Hi Anner. I had a whole bed with semps alternating with irises. No problems
at all. One might run into a little problem with particularly
fast-spreading kinds, but semps are easy to thin out, so I don't even worry
about that much. The semps are light feeders and shallow rooted, so I just
use them as an alternative to bare ground between iris clumps! Actually,
I'd be hard pressed to think of a nicer companion plant for irises.
Cheers, Tom
