Too hot or too cold, too wet or too dry, too much sun or too much shade, and they cannot survive or thrive. 1. Bearded iris Although bearded iris is one of the oldest and most well-known perennials, there are some common problems that can make it challenging to grow. "Root rot is a common problem with bearded iris, caused by planting too deep or where the soil doesn't drain well," says horticulturist Katie Sunderlage. ‘To avoid root rot, it is important to plant the rhizome 1-2 inches below the surface of well-drained soil, adding organic matter if needed. These majestic garden plants are also susceptible to insect and disease problems, particularly leaf spot, iris borer and aphids. Katie continues, 'To prev...
