OT-bio new to list


I just joined. Reason like you all I have a yard full
of Iris plants and I want to learn more about them. 
I have decided that this year I better thin them out.
So I am planning to make some new beds and also put some 
iris's back into the beds they came out of.  But I am not
too sure what I should do to the beds to get them ready for
iris's.  Do I need to add any thing to the soil? Do I need to 
do put something down because I have grubs?  And when I replant
them can I put PREEN around them so that I don't have to spend all
my time weeding which I never seem to do? 
I know to dig them, to cut the green leaf into a fan, to cut off
dead parts and when replanting to make sure the rhiozone is out of
the dirt since they like to bath in the sun.  
So do Iris's really need full sun. Or can I just plant them any
where in the yard.

Thank you.
Clem
