Well, please don't hurt yourself or your little darlings on our behalf -- you can always let us know later, after they've finished blooming, if it's easier. I know what you mean about being clumsy. I get out there in my iris beds every day, and I'm always chomping down on something because I'm so clumsy and lose my balance very easily -- I've even been known to grab onto an iris stalk to steady myself as I plow through!
