Let the foliage go brown entirely before cutting it down.
It is a term used by florists. Cut foliage means the same as cut flowers only it's foliage.
Cut off the old flowers the foliage will die back naturally in the Autumn.
Iris that grow from a rhizome, such as the Bearded Iris, are divided in the winter months or early spring in climates that are warm temperate. Iris that grow from bulbs, such as the Dutch Iris, are dug and divided when the foliage has died off after flowering, or any time until regrowth starts again.Irises can be transplanted or divided in late summer. The reason for this is they are susceptible to bacterial soft rot and need the heat and dryness of late summer to prevent this. Also do not plant too deep or they will rot. The rhizome should be slightly exposed. Check for any soft spots on the rhizome. It could be soft rot or an iris borer, either way cut that part off of the rhizome with a sharp knife.You separate Iris flowers when they do not bloom. This means they are in a "bunch" and need to be separated in order to produce blooms, not foliage.In the fall.
Remove as much foliage as possible and cut the plant as close to the ground as possible. Cover the entire thing with a piece of heavy, black plastic and pin down the edges with bricks or landscape pins. Allow the plant to bake to death for the rest of the season.
The fall season is when you replant them. I don't do anything special - just cut the tops down to four or five inches.
yes
Your teeth will rot and fall out.
You should cut the flower stalk but leave the leaves so the iris will rebloom next year.
Cut off the old flowering shoot.Liquid feed the bulb once a fortnight until the foliage starts to turn yellow. Cut the foliage down to two inches from bulb and dry off the bulb, give it a rest and start it off again the following year.

Tulips stems should be cut on a bias. To make them stay fresher for longer, cut them, then roll each stem in newspaper for 2 hours, then cut again.
