When I'm not on my bike, you'll find me in my organic-ish garden in #Cumbria. Favourite plants? Wisteria, hellebores, peonies, philadelphus...

I’m happier news I finally got round to lifting and dividing this #iris and it has rewarded me 💙💚 #iris-siberica

Beautiful! Mine are a few days off. I divided them earlier this year and have more flowers than ever

Will have to review my wishlist, I have no tubers/bulbs in garden. Waiting for shrubs to establish first (planted up March 2020). But irises are on my list, for sure..💜

Siberian irises are really easy. They don’t need their tubers (which are below the soil) to be baked like bearded irises do and they are really tough @solly1961

You’d probably get away with it now as long as you could keep it from drying out, otherwise in the autumn @solly1961

It really shows up which is great as it’s at the bottom of the garden @pauline33
