Yeah, the Irises are 3 years into their life in the pond, i did remove them from the 1gallon tubs they came in and this is the first year that they have bloomed and really showed signs of growth and thickening, I also used a plant fertilizer this year for all the pond plants and they are all doing well.They have bloomed as you can see and it's almost over for them but they are nice and thick and tall.... would like to get some purple irises..
