BV, jan told me not to divide the iris until
after they finish blooming.

Tnx for the info. My iris have overgrown their (large!) basket, and
died off in the middle -- ie. they *really* need dividing, but I now I
know to wait until after they bloom.


Another tip about iris, the part that blooms, should be cut off and just
keep the shoots off the sides that didn't have blooms. The part that blooms
will never bloom again and the off shoots will bloom the next year. ~ jan
