How To Grow Iris

* Iris plants grow best when planted in full sun and well-drained garden soil.
* Avoid overly wet soil, which can cause bulb rot.
* Plant Iris with the fleshy shoulder of the main  rhizomes exposed to the air, and above the soil.
* If wind is an issue, stake flowers once they start to bloom.
* Deadhead spent blooms to encourage more flowers.

* Once Irises are finished blooming, trim the entire flower stack back to the ground to prevent seed heads from forming.
* In the fall, trim back Iris foliage and mulch for winter protection. A nice layer of snow makes a good blanket for hardy Iris.
* Fertilize with a slow release, organic fertilizer.
