They look monumental. The main thing is that they are not eaten by small fleas, and in winter they do not freeze out after transplanting.

Six rules for irises

Varietal irises

Everything you need to know about varietal irises so that they grow well, take root and do not freeze out in winter:

Dividing period.Irises should be divided two weeks after transplanting, but no later than the end of September. It is not recommended to do this in the spring, because during this period the plant does not take root well after transplanting. In the fall, later than September, it is also not recommended to transplant and divide. Cold and frozen soil will push the rhizome out, which will lead to its freezing.

Dividing the iris rhizome

Division.It is not recommended to transplant adult varietal irises completely. They need to be divided. Divide them into several parts so that there is a fan and part of the rhizome in it. Plant them close to each other to maintain the integrity of the planting.

Deepening. It is important to follow the planting rules. The rhizome is deepened by 3-5 cm compared to the soil level.

Planting angle. It is important to plant in such a way that at noon the green fan covers the rhizome area with shadow.

Pruning. Before winter, green leaves are pruned. Leave a part of it above the rhizome at a height of 7-10 cm.

Planting location. For varietal irises, warmer places should be chosen for planting and growing, because they are not covered for the winter. And so there will be less risk that they will freeze.
