Photo of July Iris work? What should I be doing now?

The area a few posts ago showing my potted irises... That's my redbud tree and the shade it has brought me in the 10 years here. That area hasn't been very kind to the irises in recent years. So it's being replanted with hostas, heuchs, fern, and various other shade-tolerant, shade-loving plants.

This photo show the newly completed (well not fully completed) Rebloomer's Paradise. I'm only putting rebloomers in here in the hopes that they will get more of what they need and because it's raised people will see it in the fall as they come down the one way street (street traffic moves the way my vans are parked) DH day job was with DHL until they shut down ground handling so we have a fleet of Windstars just sitting there. Ugh!

Once everything is finished, rebloomers will be on both sides of the gate and I'll be able to get reliable rebloomers throughout the years to really make the fall finish with a flourish. (The water hose is on that side of the house should Ma Nature not cooperate!)
