Nicholoson's Woodland Iris Garden is going to send me replacements
next year. I do not have to place another order.
Some of you who missed my point, that I planted other Irises right
along side of the mail order ones. Only the mail order Irises are
having this rot problem. I have a raised Iris bed that is 8 feet by
27 feet. Most of my Irises I brought from Oklahoma last year. They
are doing great. I have Irises that my mother mailed from New York
and Irises I purchased from Walmart and Lowes. Everything is growing
except the Iris rhizomes I got from Nicholson's. My raised Iris bed
is on a slope and the mail order Irises are on the high side. As for
extra rhizomes, yes I received two and one of them has fallen just
the same. I ordered eleven rhizomes and received thirteen. Five out
of that thirteen are dead. As I said this is not good odds.
Especially when none of the mart iris rhizomes or the rhizomes my
mother sent sent had this problem.
