My Louisiana iris and blue flag iris has been at the ponds edge now and growing into its 2nd winter. Planted at water edge has put the plants base as high as 12" above the water level during the summer drought and as deep as 12" below water surface during the fall, winter and spring. In the high water level, maybe 2 to 4" of the highest tips of the plants are out of the water, which means most all of the plants are submerged. They are growing in this environment ( I'm suppressed). They are planted and growing at the two Wood Duck box locations at the pond. I am hoping the plants will continue to grow to new heights helping to hide the posts the wood duck boxes are setting on.
