Lynn,
Great mixed plantings on the slope!

Planting my iris up on 4 inch high mounds allows them to dry out as the daylilies & other perennials soak up the water. My tricky part is making sure the iris get enough air around them to fend off disease.

Another mixed bed this spring. The iris are tall and obscuring all the other plants.
