Thanks Apple,fantastic info,thanks for the link
This garden in the meadle of two roads it's very well cared,in portugal the public gardens are very well cared,sometimes in the summer i heard ecologists protests because of the water they spend to mantain them,special in the south,but it's a beautiful costume and now they are making the watter suply whith used recicled water,not potable,but perfect to plants.
Here's a great link that will explain all the possible issues that irises can have...for all the beauty comes work...but they are worth it.

Definitely a variation of the same stuff in my garden. I spend alot of time keeping it looking clean. With iris it can look unkept plus if you leave the dead stalks and leaves behind too long it can form a health issue from it.
