Summertime iris division tips for Chicago gardeners

Chicago gardeners are advised to divide older iris clumps in midsummer every third or fourth year to improve blooming and garden appearance. Remove weeds to prevent basal rot, cut back brown foliage, and lift clumps with a fork to replant after washing and treating rhizomes. Choose a new site if possible, prepare soil six to seven inches deep, and use a 5 10 5 fertilizer. Some weeds are hard to eradicate and may require soaking or careful hand pulling.
