Bearded Iris

Ann Fahey asked 14 years ago

Please can you tell me when I should cut back the foliage on large bearded irises. I continue to remove the spent blooms but should I leave the foliage to die back throughout the summer?

It is always best to leave the old foliage on plants to wither naturally as the plant re-absorbs nutrients and sugars, and you can remove it then if you consider it unsightly.
