Larry, thanks for the link. I think it will be very useful to anyone who might be new to growing them. The planting illustration is great. I think a lot of newbies plant them a little too deeply. I know I did my first time around.

Thanks for the post! The link was very cute, with the period illustrations. I just got a bunch of irises in a swap, and it's helpful to have a reminder so I plant them right. I didn't know about removing debris from the bed to prevent borers.

Hey Larry,

I think you may have to wait until winter for some action on the threads, people are busy outside in their gardens. I'm at my other job today by your apartment, stop by in you go out!

Hi Larry,

I have been planting mine too deep and I didn't even know it!

I covered the whole rhym. I wondered why they kept rise out of the ground. LOL. Anyway I will be getting out their and removing some dirt from around the tops now that I know they like it that way.

Thanks for the tips.

Tammy:-)
