Iris Pallida 2017

July 2017 finally came. And finally we had to start the new production of Iris. Actually we have quite an amount of Iris Germanica but the market seems not to like this kind of iris, even though we do believe that their quality is great.

We started to dig out the iris pallida we had: we thought to have just few numbers, but actually we acheved a huge amount. In the picture one of the first harvest
We proceeded than to split them and to prepare the new fields. The land became very hard and after we repaired the disaster of the flood a new little flood invested the land again (!) and we had to repair again.


 Bottom: these are the fields at the beginning. A hard work was expecting us!

At the end we were able to plant this week end the first 2 squares of iris pallida.
After planting we water them all! We do have 2 wells very usefull for this purpose: the water is absolutely pure and fresh.
