I am looking for part shade/shade plants of max height 2 ft that can be planted in with my iris' and that'll hide the dying foliage. Something that'll not distract from the iris's while in bloon, and yet, have thier own beautiful flowers after the iris' are through.

Just a thought Lorraine, what sort of iris are they, only some like their rhizomes in the sun.
