Re: Iris Gardening at TV
The book Florida Top Ten Garden Guide (a Sunset book available at Barnes and Noble) lists the "Louisiana Iris" among the top 10 bulbs in the state. The authors' favorites include Delta Dove, Eolian, Gerry Marstellar, Grace Duhon, and Jeri. Best conditions are full sun with some late afternoon shade in acid soil and some moisture; otherwise no special care or pest problems. These should do great in TV.
