    I have very many tall, medium and short bearded iris, along with some reticulata. This will be my first experience with Siberian Iris. It arrived packed in damp sphagnum moss, as opposed to the dry shipping of the German Iris. Should I plant or pot these up immediately, or can they stay in the moss for a while?

    Do they need to go in a shady spot, or part sun and be kept moist during the summer? All of my other iris are in sun or mostly sun.

    Thanks.
