OT-Bio, Gloria TB-Cult


Hello to everyone,      
My name is Gloria, and I live in Northern Rhode Island right on The 
Massachusetts line.  Most Maps show that I am a Zone 6 but there are times 
that I wonder. I have had some experience with a vegetable garden and also 
with some bulb flowers such as tulips, daffodils, etc.  I have 5 Iris plants. 
 Two were dug up at a site that was being demolished, two were received as 
gifts from an order that I placed and the last was one that I just dug up at 
the corner of my property where people across the street toss their grass 
cuttings weeds etc. and among this mess was a lone iris growing, not to big 
and it did not look to healthy, but it is now growing and seems to have 
adjusted to being moved. 
I do have a question.  I am this year ordering some Iris from Scheiners and 
also some from After Hours Iris Patch.  My question, When I receive the 
Plants from the nurseries, do I plant them right away, can I wait a few days 
etc?  The two I received as free gifts on an order of shrubs etc, I planted 
about three days after I received them in a raised bed, This is the second yr 
and I have had no flowers.  But I believe that they do not get enough sun 
light.  Can I cut them back and transplant?  Any help that anyone can give me 
will be appreciated.  
Thanking you all in advance
Gloria  Zone 6 in Northern RI
