Problem -- there's thirty or forty Irises out there that have been planted this year, alongside the garage -- can't cover them all, or repot. Have to take my chances. Shrug!

This is intended to be a temporary bed for Irises that will go into Iris Lane when I get that area under control again, and the being-resurrected-as-we-speak bed along the riding arena fence. With all the rain that we've had this year -- and are still getting -- the weeds have just gone wild. It's a jungle out there! I'm battling it as best I can, and trying to at least keep the weeds out of the rhizomes so that when the sun does shine, it can actually get to the rhizomes. This is just a very difficult year. Sad

I'm afraid to move Masai Warrior at this point, in case it has already put down some roots. It's been in the ground for a couple of weeks now. Irises planted earlier are putting up their finger-leaves, so I just don't know what's going to happen.

It just really needs to stop raining!!!!!
