I have both kinds. I love irises so much.

They are really pretty but I hope I don't have to pull mine out every year and replant them sticking up. I do end up with lots of extra bulbs, though, which I guess could be good if I wanted to plant more or give them away. For now my kids pretend they are lobsters and they try to "catch" them. Iris bulbs do make good toy lobsters. We have a book called Going Lobstering and ever since they read that they have fun pretending to catch lobsters. Even funnier if you realize I'm vegetarian. My kids aren't but they basically are because I don't buy or cook meat and I don't want it in my kitchen so they can have it if we go to grandparents' house (about once a month that comes up) or a church party.
