That really doesn't look too bad Donald. I see what looks like some new growth. Our house faces N/S with the front facing S. I may look to see if I can find another one this year at Lowes and as an experiment put it in the ground in a kind of protected area. I know that none of my Iris's died off this year. In fact I found this on 2 Jan. If I can't find any at a BB store I can always separate one of mine as they're so huge now.
