Last fall, I divided my iris plants. From a few: many. As I divided the plants, I had new rhizomes of many sizes. You can see the sword-like leaves of the irises have developed beautifully. I did not expect to see any flowers this year. This morning during garden inspection (!), I looked down at the iris garden to discover one of the smallest plants had produced a flower. Once it opens, I will share the photo with you.
My irises hadn't been divided for a few years. Recently I took a few hours to divide my purple bearded irises. The space I allocated to the replanting quickly filled up with the rhizomes. After several weeks in the ground, I can see new green growth is starting.
