Dividing Irises

Hi Jo
Basically that is all there is too it do it in the fall and cut
back the leaves to 6 inches.
Can anyone advise me how to (successfully) divide an iris clump. Someone
told me I need to just stick the spade down the middle and pull the 2 halves
apart, then plant one half elsewhere!
Sounds a bit brutal to me. I'm frightened I might damage the plant.
Any advice would be appreciated.
Jo
