i have over a hundred bearded irises in my front yard...i ordered them from Breck's. Hunny if i can't kill them neither can you-all ya gotta do is dig a hole where is sunny and leave them alone. i don't even water or fertilize mine sand some of them are over 3 feet tall-plus they rebloom in spring and fall...i planted my hubby some black ones-they look like velvet!!!
