Default Question about irises

"Gill Passman" wrote in message
. ..
I've always grown mine in a bog garden - ie. water saturated soil. I'm
wondering if it is possible to grow them as a marginal - ie. the rhizome
is underwater.....I know it is a dumb question but I'm trying to formulate
ideas for this ever evolving pond project

==================
Bearded iris wont tolerate wet soils but the water loving Louisiana iris
will thrive.
