Hi,
    Reblooming irises require more water, and more  fertilizer. Do NOT cut 
back the foliage. Don't let them go dormant or they will  not rebloom. Feed them 
with  tripple superphosphate or bone meal also some  horse feed (Alfalfa 
pellets) are also helpful, and once a year 10 X 10 X 10 or  Peters or other good 
general fertilizer. Leaf mold or compost is a good  additive.
    Good luck with your rebloomers.
    It is wonderful to see them bloom again.
