I feel like I've been weeding and fertilizing for weeks- at least two, and cutting off brown spot. What do you all recommend for brownspot? Will Neem with a little Dawn do a number on it?
I started calculating in my head about the time each iris plant takes in care.....over a thousand plants x 20 minutes times number of 20 minute sessions per year ......... maybe I need to give up sleeping, or eating, or maybe just possibly not buying more iris??? nodding nodding Sighing! .....
however the few Dutch iris that I have are blooming, plus the SDBs and the RedBud trees!

oh, and a photo of "my helper" hiding from the rain ( she contributes 0 minutes to the above calculation, but she keeps me wonderful company 24/7)
