Pug933 said: Does any particular pH or soil amendment have an impact on irises? I ask because I've had two flowers, in two different years that have displayed less yellow pigment than expected.
First up is Later Alligator which should have completely yellow falls according to the catalog picture.

Then the same thing happened last year with Secret Rites
Both were newly planted and I don't know if they just need time to settle in.
Thanks!
