CULTURAL NOTES 
TALL, INTERMEDIATE AND DWARF BEARDED IRIS will give excellent results in any fertile 
garden soil with reasonable drainage and exposure to sunlight. Whether the soil is neutral, 
slightly acid or calcareous makes little or no difference. Plants should be set out so that the 
rootstock (rhizome) is barely underground. If soil is dry when planting is done a thorough 
soaking is beneficial but after the plants become established they require very little moisture 
after blooming. When the plants become too crowded or decrease in their flowering, division 
is likely necessary. Bearded iris will grow but not bloom properly in a shaded location. 
ONCO AND REGELIA BRED IRIS require about the same conditions as the foregoing but as 
some are not quite as vigorous a little extra attention is sometimes needed. Perfect drainage, 
full sun and a good rich soil, preferably on the alkaline side, will insure best results. 
REGELIA AND REGELIO-CYCLUS IRIS require same conditions as the foregoing except that 
they must be given a rest period after blooming. If you live in a locality with hot dry summers 
during which time the soil remains absolutely dry until the falls rains, these plants may be left 
undisturbed. Otherwise they must be lifted after the foliage withers, usually about July 1, and 
stored in a dry place until September when they should be replanted. As these plants make new 
growth during the winter months some protection is necessary in the coldest sections of the 
country. 
BULB IRIS must be planted deeper than the foregoing. The Junos and the English are best 
planted about 4 to 5 inches deep. The reticulata group and tuberosa about 2 to 3 inches deep. 
With the exception of the English all thrive under the same conditions as the Regelio-cyclus 
group. The English enjoy abundant moisture until the flowering period and neutral or slightly 
acid soil. All may be lifted after blooming if desired and stored in a cool dry place until fall.
