  • Posted by TsFlowers (Indiana - Zone 5b) on Nov 8, 2017 8:52 AM concerning plant:
    After seeing another posted photo of this Iris, I'm disappointed. I probably wouldn't purchase the Iris myself.
    However, my recommendation is to grow this particular Iris in **low fertility dry soil** (like close to a tree line). That's where the seedling started, and that's where I think it will perform the best. Its maiden blooms look much better than later blooms after being moved. But it suffered in its first location for several years before I finally got it moved. It looks okay at the new lot, where soil is/was fresh and more fertile, but not as good as maiden blooms.
