I have a question, two actually. I received, in a blind seed trade, some
blackberry lilies and some Siberian irises, both plants that I have never
heard of being started from seed. WHAT DO I DO WITH THEM??

I might be able to help with the Siberian iris-what I do is soak them in hot
water for 8 hours then sow in a moist soilless potting mix. Germination occurs
in 2-5 weeks. if not place in fridge for 2 weeks.
It helps to cover the seed tray with glass to keep the air and soil moist.
You will get flowering sized plants in three years.
