Pop Quiz -- What's wrong with this pic? [solved]

(1/3) > >>

Patty S:
A month or so ago I transplanted some white Siberian Iris, & was hoping they'd make flowers for me this year.

Can anybody tell what's wrong with this pic?

     

Dianna:
Do they all have different watering needs and they are planted so close together that that is impossible to do?

Patty S:
Siberian Iris like water (I got them from the edge of a creek) & Hydrangeas need lots of water.  The spot has lots of good drainage, so I water there every day, & the rose seems to be happy with it.

They are pretty close together, but the Irises aren't planted deep enough to interfere with the roots of the Hydrangea or the Rose. All other the greenery you can see around those plants are Violets (& Liatris in the lower left corner).  The Violets grow wild & are sort of a pest in some of my gardens, but I let them go in that bed cuz they help to keep the ground moist.

Keep looking!

Bonnie:
Is it bigger than a bread box? lol

Is it the wrong flower on the stem?

Bonnie

Patty S:
What size of a bread box?

No, the flowers on those stems are the same ones that grew on them... & the leaves are the correct foliage for those flowers, too.

Keep looking.
