Tanya,
Sorry for the dud e-mail. I would not recommend fertilizing the newly
replanted Irises yet. Wait a few weeks, then fertilize lightly. The stalks
that survived probably can be left there. Once an Iris fan blooms, it dies,
and it is the increase [non-blooming fans] that carry the clump to the next
season.
