Ok, after our Iris get flowers, they get a big pod where the flower was.. I
assume that where seeds are, but they always en up sinking into the water,
and rotting. Also, they only bloom the once every year.. any way to get them
to bloom of frequently? (Water lillies are always blooming from time to
time.)

Any idea how soon that pod can be cut off, so the seeds could be planted?

You can cut them off as soon as they're done blooming. Forming seed
actually takes some of the vigor away from the forming of new blooms next
year. Btw, where the stalk came up, will never bloom again, it will be the
off-shoots that will be next year's blooms. ~ jan
