Hi Al and Iris Talk mates,
I too have moss growing in part of one of my iris beds, which is also amended red clay. I had good bloom in that bed with many increases this year in spite of a very wet spring. Fewer weeds came up in the moss covered areas, I assume because their seeds had a tough time germinating through the green mat that covered the soil around the rhizomes. I realize that moss is most likely an indicator of soggy, poorly drained soil, but does the moss itself do any harm?
