My iris on hills like the drainage and seem very happy. You will have to walk like a goat to tend them, but oh well.
About daylily rust: Serenade kicks its tail. I sell a lot of common Tawny daylilies, so I spray Serenade once a month or so. All the gardens get sprayed. It helps with leaf spot, powdery mildew and all the little junk. I alternate with Actinovate, but that wasn't as effective on rust. I am getting potassium bicarbonate as a botrytis preventive. All of those items are considered fine for organic food too.
Today I planted a Dr. Brownell rose. It was difficult finding a bare spot! I have some dark whorled spikes of leaves coming up. I forgot what they are.
There are dwarf noIDs from the MIS swap everywhere.
