Iris Transplant Shock: Why Leaves Wilt After Planting and How to Recover

Newly Planted Iris Wilting

Immediate wilting after planting is transplant shock. Iris are tough and recover quickly.

Water deeply once a week (if no rain).
Ensure full sun for maximum blooms.
Do not fertilize now.

Leaves will stiffen within 1–2 weeks as roots re-establish.
