Do you mind if I comment on my real life search for hardy iris for my garden?
Here is today's comment:
Dug up a bed of I.pallida and Florentina, with a few Rhages. This bed has been here for over 5 years? The I pallida foliage is quite leaf spot free, whereas the Florentina is badly spotted. I think the Rhages has PBF have to look it up. No borers. Florentina has some hollowed out rhizomes, a few with slugs nesting inside, but no real sign of rot in this bed. These hardy growers are going to another area, and new iris will be planted here, along with some of my very favorite DL'a and lilies. It will be very different!
