If left outside it will freeze. goodbye seeds.
If stalk cut and brought indoors, you will need to feed stalk with an
appropriate? formula. A bit early in development otherwise, and even with?
food may not work.

Best bet would be to dig it up with? big dirt clump and pot up. Even if pot is
plastic wrapped around clump with suitable drainage holes, And keep in a place
with light.

Been there? done all of these .

Good luck.

I have a iris that rebloomed and it formed 3 pods in  mid Oct. The weather
has been unusually warm for this time of the year  here on Long Island so I
left them alone. However, the weather is finally  becoming much colder and
the pods are still green. My first question  is what happens if the pods are
left outside on the stalk? Second question  should I bring the stalk inside
my home to see if the pods progress  further to form viable seeds?
What to do, what to do, what to do?
Thanks in advance.
