Iris plants spread by root. In the spring you can see this by noticing that the iris is producing a ring of new sprouts rather than from the center as planted originally. If divided (cut ring into for equal sections and replant) once in awhile the iris will live as long as you want. Each section can be planted in a new location in the garden.

I know Iris is a bulb, and you have to dig them up before your first frost, and wrap them (just the bulbs) in newspaper and then into a brown paper bag, and you store them in your basement. Has to be a cool place. If you have no basement, then store them in a crisper drawer of your refrigerator. Then you plant them again after your last frost. They will be beautiful come spring.
