Well, maybe the woman's salvias were too close and competed with her Iris but that could happen with any plant I would think. I tend to plant things too close together, a bad habit from when I had a tiny city lot garden and crammed things in tight. Now I have a 1/2 acre and I still tend to do that, I have and want too many plants! Today I had to rescue two Iris that were completely covered by a shrub and a geranium. More to rescue tomorrow.
If you ever are interested to see my new garden journey, check out my blog here (found in my profile) starting with the earliest post first. I have good weather and soil here and it filled in real fast.
By the way, no such thing as a 7 ft Iris, it was a salvia I was talking about.
And listen to your doctor!

I agree with Sue.... "Loved your post! Yes, no freaking out! And listen to your doctors!"

Your two Salvias (in the pics above) are gorgeous! Love both the red and pink flowered ones! Here's the salvia greggi link to post your pink one, as I see you had already posted your red one. Autumn Sage (Salvia greggii)
