Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Flowerfield Spring Flowering Bulbs and Roots: Autumn Planting 1939 The cultural requirements are simple for this Iris. The plants can be grown in any average well drained sweet soil in a sunny location where the plants will be assured all the sunshine possible. Bonemeal has been proven a satisfactory fertilizer. Manure can be used in rotted form, only if well spaded under so that no humus will come in contact with the rhizomes. It has been found that the best time to plant Iris is from midsummer to the last part of September, so that the roots will become well established before freezing. We prefer to plant during July and August. If the soil appears dry at planting time, thoroughly soak the dug up area to be planted, spread the roots over the moist surface, replace the soil over them. The rhizome should be just below surface with the soil tamped down around it, so that it is firmly held in position by the packed soil.
