I always used to remove them, saves the plant wasting energy on seed production.

Thanks - this was on my list to ask.......Any tips on propagating Iris from Seed...I thought you could only lift and split..... Agree with Pimpernel your border looks fab :)

You can grow from seed, obviously takes longer - the info on this website is good...
