Bigger is not better. Many of the huge rhizomes sent to me out of Oregon & California sit & shrink for a year as they get shocked into iowa's climate. Many of the bigger ones just rot. I'll take small rhizomes that adjust better ANY day.

I only feed my iris twice a year and let God do all the watering.My smaller rhizomes bloom just fine, thank you.
