First make sure they are dried. The place in a dark, cool place. Then coat them in powdered sulfur, which serves as anti fungal. "The last step in storing iris rhizomes is to wrap each rhizome in a piece of newspaper and place in a box. Put the box in a cool, dry place. Every few weeks, check on the iris rhizomes to make sure that rot has not set in. If the iris rhizomes start to rot, they will feel soft and mushy instead of firm" www.gardeningknowhow.com/
I store my plants in individual paper bags in my basement, where it is cool and dry.
