grannysgarden said:I plant NoIDs that I do not just have to have in a bed that also has DLs. The hearty DLs crowded out the more delicate ones and the older irises thrive there. No newer iris could live there.
Do you mean by 'older irises' plants older in years or older cultivars?
Are newly created cultivars less vigorous?
When I look at my TB's than áll of them have multiplied from 1 fan to 2, 3 or even 4, even the ones that are crowded by the Daylilies, but perhaps they did that relying on the 'food' stored in the mother rhizome? Or is sunshine on the leaves alone enough to thrive?
(the TB's in between the DL's didn't get sun on their rhizome from April/May forward, but will as soon as the DL's die back and I pull out the annuals)
Lest We Forget is rebloming at the moment, as is English Cottage, both in DL borders
