#ProPlantTips for Care:

Siberian Iris rhizomes do best in full sun in cooler zones but appreciate a touch of afternoon shade in hotter hardiness zones. They prefer being planted in very well-drained soils that have adequate moisture. Once planted, water and mulch thoroughly.

Planting Iris Rhizomes

Work a handful of bone meal or slow-release organic fertilizer below the roots. The planting depth of Iris bareroot is generally 3 to 5 inches deep and apart, keeping the pointed side up, backfilling with well-draining topsoil, and then watering in well until the ground freezes. You'll see the bumps or shoots of next year's leaves on one side, so be sure to plant with those facing up. The upper 1/3 of the rhizome should be exposed to sunlight.

When it gets cold, top with a layer of arborist mulch over the rhizome for winter insulation. In spring, pull back the mulch to expose the top one-third of the rhizome once again.
