HOW TO PLANT AN IRIS 
This drawing shows how a Ger¬ 
man Iris plant should be prepared 
for planting. We cut back the 
foliage to about 6 inches before 
shipping. Spread the roots evenly 
in all directions and work the soil 
between and around; 
then firm with the Soil Level 
hands or feet. Contin¬ 
ue this process until 
about two-thirds of 
the rhizome is covered, 
leave the remainder 
exposed to the sun 
and air.
