Karima,
You can remove spent flowers anytime as long as you "surgically"
remove the individual spent blooms. Once a stalk has finished blooming,
then cut back the stalk. On a TB Iris, the spent stalk should be cut off
at the base. With Siberian Irises, I cut the stalks off right at the point
where it comes out of the leaves of the fan it came from.
