If something is growing, water it. Stop watering when it dies back. Eventually it will get in sync with the seasons. Note that I only grow one or two irids so I'm not an expert and if anyone has more specific advice I hope they will weigh in on this. Bob I have a tiny question. Many of the bulbs have started to send up greenery in the packets. So I did as advised - plant and water and put in the shade. But it’s likely they will continue to sprout and grow now - in or off season of course. Any advice in how I proceed given the sprouting? They are all planted in moistened well draining soil in pots just below the surface. Thanks. _______________________________________________ pbs mailing list pbs@lists.pacificbulbsociety.net https://lists.pacificbulbsociety.net/cgi-bin/… Unsubscribe: <mailto:pbs-unsubscribe@lists.pacificbulbsociety.net> PBS Forum https://…
