Hello irisarians far and wide!

(not that you are overweight, yaknowhatImean)

My name is Dan Asmus, and I live in Joplin, MO --  I guess that's zone 6a.

I used to garden irises in St Paul, MN, and appreciated your collective good
advice and encouragement, but that was over four years ago, and I've been
out of it recently.

In August, I transplanted a total of 208 iris rhizomes into a patch that was
largely grass, by using a mantis tiller to rip open the ground, and a lot of
grass has comeback, so I have a lot of tending to do, but my main concern is
that about two-thirds of them are stunted growth--I think I saw this
described as "pineapple", but could find no reference in the archives when
searching that word.

Can anybody tell me what I might be able to do for these plants?

Thanks in advance
Dan Asmus, Joplin, MO
