Best Answer

The placement of a barrier a few microns above the event horizon of a wormhole prevents the creation of an unstable vortex, or 'swoosh' effect. The vortex itself isn't necessary for the wormhole to be created; the Nox and future Cassandra in '1969' are shown to be able to activate the stargate without the 'swoosh'. It's not just the iris either: a wormhole formed when the gate was buried in '100 days', because a hard naquadah crust was formed over the gate, whilst not inside it, allowing a wormhole to connect but the MALP to be crushed. (Like the iris does to a few unlucky Jaffa every now and then). Atlantis' shield is another example of a barrier that allows the gate to operate but no vortex to form.

Is iris considered broadleaved or narrow leaved in terms of herbicide applications?

It depends upon the particular iris [Irisspp] as to whether the plant will be affected by broadleaved or narrow leaved herbicide applications. Generally, those iris plants such as the amur iris [Iris maackii], Douglas iris [Iris douglasiana], and Virginia iris [Iris virginica] that are water feature and water body lovers tend to be broadleaved. Additionally, the bulbous iris that's grown from bulbs has wider, cylindrical leaves at their bases whereas rhizomatous iris that spreads by underground rhizomes has narrower, sword shaped leaves. Examples of popular narrow leaved iris plants include Algerian iris [Iris unguicularis varangustifolia], Pacific Coast iris [Iris tenax], and Siberian iris [Iris siberica ].
