When the pumila iris wilts, and a week after flowering, you can start dividing.
Step 1. Remove faded flower stalks.
Step 2. The rhizome of the iris is cut with sharp secateurs into several parts, which are located on 2-3 buds of renewal and a sufficient number of roots.
To make the Iris bloom for the next year, divide it into more parts.
In these places, roots are formed and new ones grow.
Step 3. Trim the leaves
Step 4. Trim the roots
Most of the pumila iris is ready for planting
Adjust the lower parts of the pumila iris
The separation of dwarf irises can be carried out within one month after the end of their flowering. The next part is planted in a well-prepared fertile soil in a sunny place. Plant so that the “back” was covered with earth. In dry weather, watering is necessary.
