When is the right time to divide Siberian Iris? Mine has finished blooming
and has made seed pods.

Thanks,

According to this site, there doesn't seem to be a bad time to divide.

Whenever you have the energy to pry the roots apart and find a place
to replant seems ideal. :-)

You can certainly divide it now if you wish. Generally, spring blooming
perennials are recommended to be divided in fall, later blooming ones in
spring. Personally, I divide anything whenever I have the time - nothing has
croaked yet!! And sibes are pretty tough plants.

Wait until after you have picked the seed pods.
