very few iris blooms
I have a small garden with iris that bloomed beautifully a couple of years ago and then last year, very little and the same this year. I think so far I have had maybe 4 blooms. I don't think that the plantings are too thick, they are sort of in a line and about 2-3 deep. A couple of plants had buds that seemed to rot. It isn't especially wet or anything and gets a fair amount of sun. Last year we mulched all the gardens and now I am hearing you shouldn't mulch irises, but before we mulched the blooms were pretty pitiful last year as well. Any ideas?
Agree that mulching irises is not a good idea: the rhizomes need all the sun and the air they can get. I had buds that rotted this year, but I think it was because we had tons of rain right as they were getting near to blooming. Not sure what you mean by "two or three deep" - do you mean two or three "rows" one behind the other? How about feeding? have you been feeding your irises? Try to give them fertilizer with a lower first number, like 6-9-9, to prevent too much leaf growth at the expense of blooms. If your bed is very close to a lawn - that might be a problem, since lawn fertilizer is just the opposite, the first number is high. Anyhow, just some thoughts.
Ok, then I need a new fertilizer for them. Also, does the no mulch rule apply to siberica and Japanese irises as well? I have a few ordered and want to get them planted correctly. I also have a Louisiana Black iris coming too.
thanks again,
Pretty much all of the rules that apply to proper culture for bearded irises are completely opposite for the beardless irises (Japanese, Siberian, Louisiana). Beardeds prefer well drained soil that is allowed to dry out between rainfalls, no mulch, low-nitrogen fertilizer, and a soil pH anywhere from moderately acidic to moderately alkaline. Beardless prefer consistent soil moisture; plenty of mulch; balanced fertilizer; and rich, acidic soil.
In other words, save your mulch and Miracid for the beardless.
Yeah I am learning as I go too. I couldn't figure out why I had a Siberian Iris that were barely multiplying at all.. I read up and found out they prefer acidic ph, so I have to move them.
Luckily I am digging a new flower bed, so I'll just sick all of them in there. :)

Colorectal cancer continues to be the second leading cancer killer for both men and women combined in the United States, even though it is 90 percent preventable and 90 percent treatable when detected early.
These figures are of great concern to care providers and staff at Los Alamos Medical Center, because we know that fewer than 50 percent of adults age 50 or older have had one of the readily available colorectal cancer screening tests within the recommended time periods.
That is truly unfortunate because when detected at an early, localized stage, colorectal cancers are nearly 100 percent curable; however, only 39 percent of these cancers are diagnosed at this stage, mostly because of low rates of screening.
Enter the month of March, also known as 'Colorectal Cancer Awareness Month', and LAMC's ColoCARE awareness campaign. Our physicians are telling us that we can save more lives, and we're going to focus on doing just that – by educating the public about colorectal cancer and the screening tests that are available. We're taking advantage of this special month to make sure everyone in the communities we serve knows when they should be screened.
Most people do not realize that you can actually prevent colon cancer, in many cases, by simply having a colonoscopy.

White Garden
With all the hardships are now falling on many of our people here in our nation and else were,I think it would be good if we set a side a bed or section to make a white garden and flowers of one's choice for hope and prayers
For our nation and people everywhere.
That sounds beautiful! :) The thought behind it is so beautiful! I have thought of some of the seeds I have that would be a nice white combo. I am thinking,reseda alba,Cosmos 'Physce' (white) and Malva 'White Perfection",possibly some white Phlox drummondi and white snapdragons also!:)
The bed I am considering is one that can be seen from many angles,passer-bys and us! I am excited about this project! Maybe this will be one "theme" I can stick to!;)
I was thinking of doing a white garden. Just because I wanted one, but having a special meaning like this behind it makes it even more special for me.
I think I will add a bright red bloomer right in the middle to signify the "heart" of it all.
Thank you for sharing such a wonderful and thoughtful idea.
I found this list of colors and their meanings via a search:
Red communicates love and beauty. In Christianity, red symbolizes love, blood and the martyrdom of Christ.
Orange represents enthusiasm, excitement and adventure.
The color of joy, gladness, delight, and the promise of a new beginning. It also represents playfulness, creativity, warmth, charm, confidence, basically an easy going attitude about life.
The peaceful color of a spring meadow, once banned by Christians now means hope, peace, healing and growth in Christian life.
Blue is the color of constancy and faith, the color painters used for the Virgin Mary's robe, the color of the heavens and the oceans. The soothing color blue stands for sky, good health, sensitivity, truth, loyalty, patience, friendship and dignity. In Christianity, blue symbolizes Mary and Advent.
Purple is symbolic of power, majesty, spiritual goals, passionate belief, visionary leadership, respect and wealth. It has been worn by emperors, military commanders, and other high-ranking officials. In Christianity, purple means penitence.
Here is a link that might be useful: Symbolism of color
Thanks for the info and link. You know I bet a lavender would look great bordered around the white, but several other colors would look great also. Well give me something to think on. I have other projects in mind also. Another member sent me some broomcorn and I am debating with that one. I may go with some tall sunflowers mixed in with that.
I too think that is a wonderful idea. I know so many that are struggling right now. I have some double hollyhocks I could grow a few in the background, also have white sweet peas, morning glories, not sure what else for center...have to check my stash. Maybe white petunia and alyssum in front. As far as the red hmmm...poppies,zinnia,phlox,...not sure yet. : ) First time I've done a themed garden!
I think a splash of red is perfect.
thanks for the list of colors and their meanings and also for the link.
Now my creative juices are going crazy!!! : )
Hi Cindy
I just got in from work.
You mention morning glory and the one thing that pop into my mind is that fact years ago there used to be a wild one that grew up at my folk's place that had very bright snowy white blooms each year. I wished over and over again I collected some seed from that one. I do not know where it exist up there still or not. Think I'll take a trip up there late this summer and see. Also I was looking around this morning and ran into this nice looking breed of flowers at: http://www.swallowtailgardenseeds.com/annuals/brachycome.html That is also known as the Swan River Daisy.
That one really holds some nice colors.
Bill449 - Be careful collecting wild morning glory seeds. Look up bindweed. I have it, and it kills me to, but I pull it up every time I see some. :-(
This is fun! I have already started making trades for white blooming plants/flowers.
Enjoy your gardens!
Actually Carrie I do have some seed of the Southwest bind weed for an area that deserves it. lolllll We have wild hedges around here and those things will grow anywhere. Their fragrance I do not care for when they bloom and the pollen they give off makes my eyes burn and itch. So I am going to sow some bind weed next to them on the right hand side of my yard where I have a thicket of them in the edge of the woodland and say get em! lollllll Our Southeast wild MG or binders are not as aggressive as the Southwest type, and produce some really nice colors.
The Southwest binder you can tell a part from these that are native here. They have a little larger leaves and a bit thicker then ours. I bought some rye seed years ago that came out of Texas for a cover crop on one of my tobacco patches.
This grain seed had binder seed mixed in it and man oh man. I put three times the work into that patch of tobacco to just keep those binders from taking over.
I just don't think I could take that now. I was young and tough then and another story now. lol I am excited about this white garden project and hope this spreads all over this country. This is very nice and though I grew some flowers in the past I am no expert. I am a use to be veggie and tobacco farmer and still learning in growing flowers. I hope to try to raise some stocks and wallflowers this year for future seeds to share with folks, and with other items as well. Oh by the way, if any of you all run into someone with some extra woodland tobacco seed they cannot use I would be interested. Well about time for work. All the best and have a super good weekend you all. Bill449
I have been looking at the woodland tobacco. It would look good I think as a background in a white garden. Some impatiens in front and maybe a lavender border of impatiens around the white ones. Then some datura whites in the background and then some woodland tobacco which is a bit taller behind the daturas. They have a real good selection of flowering tobacco at: http://www.swallowtailgardenseeds.com/annuals/nicotiana.html and a very nice working website.
Yes and thanks bakemom it is really going to be interesting and somewhat of an adventure for everyone. Too, each one should go by their own heart's desire of what design of flowers of arrangements. White looks best to me when some other colors are use for side borders and background and such. Seems like this brings out the white colors even brighter then being white alone. I have some other projects plans as well and still debating over them. I hope I have as good of luck this year with my veggies and flowers like I had last year. I had one Amanda Orange tomato last summer that was 2 1/4 LB when it got ripe. That is the biggest tomato I ever grew. I also had some Marion tomatoes I was very happy with. They had a very good flavor and plan to grow them again this summer. Thats another thing. Flower growing is a very good hobby for kids. If one can grow flowers, one can grow veggies too. Nothing like hands on learning. Have a good weekend everyone.

Algae Removal that is Safe for Plants
Does anyone know of a reliable algae remover that is plant safe?
I use koiclay in my pond every year. Seems to work well on both algae control and giving the plants a boost. If I get string algae I just use a toilet brush to scoop it out.
I have used hydrogen peroxide for string algae control, but only one time last spring. I'm a little squeamish about adding things to my pond. However, I was preparing for a pond tour, and wanted it to look good for the people coming by to see it.
My pond was 1400 gallons then, and I used three bottles, the regular 3% drug store variety, which was less than what was recommended. The recommended amount came to something like five bottles. At first I saw no results at all, and then I went out one more several days later, and all the algae was gone.
Some people prefer to use barley bales, which release hydrogen peroxide as if decomposes, which is how they work to control algae. It takes time for the bales to work, however, so barley extract may work better. It's expensive, though, so I've never tried it.
Peroxide also aerates the water. I first heard of using peroxide in aquatic situations during the 2007 ice storm here in N.E. Oklahoma. I was without power for 8 days, and had to move my tropical fish from my aquarium in a very cold room to smaller containers that I could place near the fire for warmth. Small containers meant partial water changes twice a day to control ammonia buildup, but oxygen became a problem as well. I was told by some fish hobbiests to use peroxide to help maintain oxygen levels in the containers.
I forgot to add that this year I've been using Clarity Max + at the recommendation of a local koi breeder/dealer. The results have been slow, but after several weeks of using this, I am now starting to see some clearing of the algae. My stream has been full of it, but now about half of the algae is gone, so we'll see.
Here is a link that might be useful: Clarity Max +
GreenCLean is great stuff. Very similar to hydrogen peroxide. It kills on contact and release oxygen into the water as it breaks down. It is safe for plants, just so long as you dont get the granules on the plant leaves becuase they can burn them. But once it is in the water it is fine.
Cool thing too is that there are application rates for using it clean other things like patios and patio furniture.
Here is a link that might be useful: GreenClean
Green clean is ok but it has to get right on the algae. I use algaefix and have done for many years. It works great and it has never harmed my plants. As with anything you must follow the directions exactly. I only need to use it in the spring before the plants get going. I have tried them ALL and this one is the one I always go back to. Very easy to use and does the job. With it and a UV light my water stays clear all year.
Peroxide breaks down to oxygen and water, right. So it would be safe for my animals. I have two cats and three dogs who drink out of my pond. I am afraid to put anything in it. I have reddish brown water which could be some type of organism or maybe suspended dust from the creek sand I put around the pond.
I have loads of plants and a home made biofilter and have never needed to use any kind of chemical algae killer nor ever had any reason to.
A properly balanced pond won't have algae blooms.....add plants and be safe for your plants, pets and wildlife.
I know plenty of people who have killed all their plants and fish with Algae Fix and other chemical quick fixes.
This is great information. I have had my pond for almost 4 years now and I have never had problems with algae until recently. This spring my pond is quickly being overtaken by stringy algae that is growing on the sides and plants and everything! I have always had fish and plants in the pond. This year, I lost most of my fish over the winter (not sure if it was because it was a really cold winter or because of the algae or what). Now I am trying to get the fish re-established. Anyway, buyorsell888, what is considered a "balanced pond"? I'm pretty sure I had one (by pure luck) before I lost my fish, that's why I didn't have a problem before. But, I wonder if there's some kind of a formula. I have a small 90 gal pond that I'm asking about.
I was at the Dietter's water garden place in Conn. yesterday and asked about my green string algae and peroxide etc. Since I removed all my tropical water flowers before winter they said over winter the sun created "plant life" which is what algae is. And once my new plants start multiplying, the string algae would be starved out. I could add either Peroxide or Bleach to the water now or just wait until the plants do their thing naturally. So I decided to a few capfuls of peroxide for curiosity since they said it won't hurt the plants.
I also remembered that I sometimes put a cap of bleach into a vase of fresh cut flowers to keep the water clean and fresh smelling and the flowers don't get hurt by that. They actually last longer.
If you lost your fish after that many years it was probably the result of something pretty sever. If they didn't freeze, and they hadn't in the past, then I would think either pH crash, ammonia build-up, or infection. I suppose testing water with a good quality test kit will be in your future if you need to know for sure.
I seriously doubt the string algae had any direct bearing on the fate of your fish unless it kept them contained in muck. My string algae is a result of rich water, cool spring weather (but well above freezing), sunlight, and no plant or biological competition.
If you kept any of the water you had maybe you can have it tested. Try a local college or county extension office to see if they can do it or recommend someone / someplace too.
Good Luck to you in your next go'round!

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Winnipeg Jets and Claude Noel just awaiting clearance
New duties and new responsibilities among the coaching staff will mark the Winnipeg Jets' second revival season -- if it ever gets going.
Jets head coach Claude Noel, who because of the NHL lockout has been virtually silent since the summer, told the Free Press late this week that the addition of assistant coach Perry Pearn has been a catalyst for change.
Noel has tasked Pearn with lead roles for both the team's power play and penalty-killing.
Assistant coach Charlie Huddy will continue to work with the team's defencemen and the penalty killing, while assistant coach Pascal Vincent will remain hands-on with the power play.
"I had to get a feel for a guy with so much experience, NHL and experience in other leagues, and how to best utilize it," Noel said. "That took me some time."
Noel will certainly be hoping for better results ahead. The Jets were ranked 24th of 30 teams in penalty-killing last season at 80.1 per cent. Their power play was No. 11 at 17.9 per cent but when the two special-teams percentages don't add up to 100, there's work to be done.
"I really like the chemistry we have with this staff," Noel said. "And I've given some objectives to Perry in regards to working with both Charlie and Pascal. We'll take it one year at a time."
On the bench and during games, Noel has decided that he'll be flanked by both Huddy and Pearn full-time, with Huddy changing the defence and Pearn working with the forwards.
Vincent will be initially asked to contribute from high above the ice.
"But he won't be upstairs every game and all of the games," Noel said. "I've been in that position before. Pascal is a very intelligent young coach and I know he's very passionate and I know that will be a very difficult thing for him to deal with. But I'm going to make sure he's not too far away from our players during games.
"Look, there's enough work for all of us to go around. And what it does is frees me up to continue to develop relationships with the players. I have responsibilities in managing this whole thing, coaches, trainers and staff and dealing with players.
"Last year, everything was so busy all the time and there were a lot of things I wasn't able to do. I want to do more them and do them better."
Noel said he has spent a good deal of time thinking about a potential frantic, compressed season that could still be played.
"I think all the coaches are going to be in the same boat, that there's going to be a difficult time and process because there will be so many factors involved here," he said. "Seven or eight of your players are playing, others are practising to a degree and you'll have other guys you're not sure about or what they're doing."
But even after any resumption of normalcy, a certain fly-by-the-seat-of-one's-pants theme is almost certain.
"It'll be more intense, a shorter span, how many games in how many days? And team dynamics? What will that be like? And the 13 or 14 players who have not been in heavy competition, somewhere in there there could be problems, things you can't anticipate or things you can anticipate but you don't know who and what."
While the lockout has dragged on, said he has worked diligently at keeping busy -- he brought the Jets' coaching staff together again for meetings last week, for instance -- and trying to catch up in some personal ways.
"Really trying to get organized," he said. "When we came here two years ago with the Moose, we moved here on Sept. 1 and I went straight to Vancouver. That year was busy, and I didn't really unpack my desk and get organized very well. And then that season rolled into the Jets and I had to build a staff.
"So this has at least given me some time to get organized and unpack some things at home."
Self-evaluation and self-improvement have occupied much of his lockout time.
As well, he has found ways to get onto the ice, working with three minor-hockey teams on Mondays at the MTS Iceplex.
"I have way too much energy right now and my passion level is quite high. So on the ice I am a raging lunatic at times," he said.
That's the gung-ho Noel Jets fans know and they'll be glad to hear with his whistle and coaching hat, he has similar expectations for pros and kids.

St. Andrew's Cathedral
The Cathedral doesn't really stand out between the other churches in Inverness, such as the Old High Kirk or the Free North Church. One of the reasons might be that the original design included two spires which were never built due to lack of funds. The church was built between 1866 and 1869 in the neogothic style which was the fashion of its time. Note the beautiful angel font in the entry hall by Danish artist Thorvaldsen as well as the icons given to the church by the Tsar of Russia.
- Architecture
St Andrews Cathedral
The Cathedral Church of Saint Andrew, Mother Church of the Diocese of Moray, Ross and Caithness, set in a glorious riverside setting, was the first new Cathedral to be completed in Britain since the Reformation. Built between 1866 and 1869 in the Gothic style to the design of Alexander Ross, it features twin towers with a ring of ten bells, an octagonal Chapter House which now acts as the Choristers' Song School, monolithic pillars of polished Peterhead granite, stained glass, sculptures, a carved reredos, an angel font after Thorvaldsen (Copenhagen), a founder's memorial as well as icons presented by the Tsar of Russia.
