Best Answer

Excessive moisture and rainy or humid weather can lead to this problem known as leaf spot. Always remove old dead leaves, and cut off and destroy any leaf or part of a leaf that is affected. In the spring, about six weeks before bloom, begin a regular spraying program with a fungicide.

After the iris blooms, the green part of the plant gradually dies back. However, it is not dead. It will regrow the leaves next spring and bloom again.

If the leaves are brown, it may be because the iris rhyzome has been eaten by iris borer moth larvae.

When do you cut back iris plants in Texas?

Iris leaves should be trimmed back when they have brown tips. Cutting the flowering stalk to the rhizome will also discourage rot. The leaves usually don't need to be trimmed because they will carry on photosynthesis for next year's growth.
