Re: Beginner question

Alana, you got the good advice from Charlene already.  I'd only add that the
optimum time to dig and replant definitely depends on where you live.  Here in
northwest Iowa the best time was a month ago, while farther south it would be
a different time.  Let us know where you are, so somebody from your home area
can tell you what is best.  In general, though, dig them, keep one of each
variety (or two, if you want insurance, though I've never found this to be
necessary), replant it, and dispose of the rest as you see fit.  Maybe you can
give them to others.  I like to do that as much as possible--hate to throw
away anything so nice.   Best wishes.  And don't worry abou a long message.
Yours wasn't so very long anyway.  Welcome to the iris list.
