Reno’ing a pond with lotttttttts of purple iris. They look nice when blooming but also seem unkept from previous owners. Decided to reset and needed the iris area. Had to hacksaw the ground to get it out.
It’s hardy but I’m not sure if any remaining rhizomes will make it through a new berm or I may just lay fabric before 2’ of dirt.
Anyway, I would like SOME iris again. I’m still a less than a year exp newbie.
Putting iris in a sissy screen sock or other bag would probably slow in water spread.
Any type of inground containment apparatus (pot? Sissy sock? Other??) which would be as successful to keep it localized in dirt and effective against the rhizome onslaught?
