Our Iris are on top of a barrel filter, in a laundry basket with a lot of
holes. The roots reach down into the barrel. lots of growth...massive,
tall Iris! Probably eating up nutrients. Went from three plants to a 15x23
mass of plants in a season. WH probably does better...lots to throw out.
Mine are just coming to that stage now.

Good luck!

I had a filter with lava rock topped with a floor scrubber pad. (looks
like a big Scotchbrite.)

Iris grew really well in that, worked well until it was time to take
it apart, what a mess.
