the roots well spread out underneath so the rhizome is within reach of the warmth of hae 
the sun’s rays while the roots beneath are in moist (not soggy) soil. Be sure to firm ee 
the soil tightly around each rhizome when planting. Follow ordinary good garden 
practice of watering and setting soil on newly set plants, of course. ary 
DISTANCE APART: Depends on your particular plans. Generally Iris are planted i ae 
from eight inches to two feet apart. Closer plants are for immediate effect and will fe: 
need thinning sooner. Plant three of a kind to give an immediate clump effect, in a yc 
triangle with the toes of the rhizomes pointing inward. Place eight inches a fate it 
Planted two feet or more apart they may be left for longer periods of time. Age
