HI to all and Calif Sue
the Honky tonk picture that came on the pot from the grower shows a med blue Honky tonk bloom with
white swirls in it..I knew that was not true for my Honky tonk blooming.
Mine will be dark blue in the early morning and then a brighter lavender blue later in mid am.
There is no white on my blooms no shading or swirls ot specks of white on the blooms
as the seller said.

We have acidic soil more than alkaline at my home..
I just put bonemeal to my iris and scratched it in..
I did have 5-10-10 I put near them in February..of this year
and had some Black Kow no burn compost I spread across the top
last fall , leaving some rhizone exposed to the sun..just a little.

That is all I have done to the iris area..
thanks for the comments..
The iris that seems to not like it here is Edith Wolford
I love that iris..but it is yellowing on the fans and
I have no idea, do you what could cause that ..
next to it are healthy other named iris...
