How do I plant irises?
To plant irises, it's best to do so in the open ground in autumn or spring, in well-drained, sunny soil. Choose a spot with at least 6 hours of sun a day. Dig a hole large enough to accommodate the roots without bending them, making sure that the collar is level with the ground. Add a little compost to the soil to improve its texture. Don't use fertiliser, irises don't need it.
