My Irises

These were all started from my Mother-in-law's flowers.

  2. Irises are about the easiest thing to grow. You just stick them in the ground and forget about them.

    I have had nothing but bad luck with them! I have several Iris plants that grow every year but never bloom.

    Yours are lovely. I'm jealous as well!

  4. I usually try to separate them in August every few years, and I cut them back about six weeks after they bloom, with scissors at an angle. Some years I try to sprinkle them with bone meal around February, but I don't know if that makes a difference.
