Iris transplantation method

Preparation

The main preparations for growing irises at home include: flower pots, shovels, watering pots, iris soil, etc.

Lateral bud transplantation

First prepare the side buds for later use.

Prepare the flower pots and soil. Ordinary soil will do. Go to the flower shop and buy some fertile nutrient soil.

Cut off the buds with roots, making sure not to damage the roots and stems, and plant them in a pot.

Water the plants after planting. Don’t water them too much at the beginning because the roots have not grown well, so as to avoid rotting of the side shoots.

Maintenance

Remove the dead leaves in autumn. Don't worry if all the leaves turn yellow, the roots and stems inside are still alive. When it sprouts in the spring of the second year, you can add appropriate amount of fertilizer or soil and the pot will be full again. At the same time, it also has good resistance to insect pests.

It can be exposed to the sun or in a semi-shaded environment. In the summer when the temperature is high and the plant is exposed to the sun outdoors, you need to water it more often, and you should not stop watering it in the summer. In a semi-shaded environment, the amount of watering can be reduced appropriately. Just place it in a sunny place in winter. It can be placed on the balcony or terrace when it snows, no special care is required.
