A FEW IRIS POINTERS 
If plant Iris late in fall, then cover 
plants with brush, cornstalks, tomato 
vines, excelsior, or any coarse material 
until early spring. This is to prevent 
alternate freezing and thawing in winter. 
No protection after first winter needed in 
our section. 
Remove covering early in spring. Am 

. told that protection is often given on old 
as well as young plants in the Mississippi 
Valley and farther east. Straw, hay, ex- 
celsior, corn stalks, brush, etc., are used. 
Avoid too much covering right on top 
of the plants. 
I usually protect my late Iris plantings 
simply by thrpwing a ridge of soil over 
the rows with a small hand plow, shovel 
or hoe, covering everything. In this case 
I cut the tops back nearly to the rhizomes, 
planting more like bulbs than _ plants. 
Very important to pack soil firmly about 
the roots and see that they enter the 
winter in the soil not dried out, though 
much moisture not needed or desirable. 
Level the soil early in spring.
