sorry maryl, i too, live in dry so. cal near the ocean, and it's my first season with irises in
this clime. it's pretty sunny here most of the year. altho', we get a humid bit during monsoon season with moisture coming from the gulf of mexico, some hail in the winter, but no snow that i know of, and temps down to the 30's (f) ocassionally for about 3 wks. but no more than a wk-at-a-time.
the ones i planted in the ground just have their roots in the soil, most of the rhizome is out.
on some, the toe might be buried a little more.
