I have some yellow bearded irises that need to be transplanted. Please tell me when it’s the best time to do this. Thanks

Question

My Irises are not getting enough light to bloom this year. Now the Kudzu vine is going to choke them out. Please help.

I don’t have a phone to take a picture, sorry.

Answer 1

You are in luck as this is the right time to transplant iris. They are dormant in late summer, usually July and August, so that is a good time to move them. Here is an article about transplanting iris and one about controlling kudzu. Good luck!
