I am just going into my third year full-out with Iris. At this point, I am looking at form (becoming more enamored with ruffles all the time); do I like the color(s); do I already have one similar to this, and, if so, is it different enough to keep on the list; what is the registered bloom season (looking to avoid buying Mid Season bloomers because I have so many already and want as extended a bloom season as I can get; what type of Bearded is it: Tall, Arilbred, Intermediate, Border, Standard Dwarf, etc.; does it have rebloom genes; and who is the hybridizer--I have developed a fondness for Blyth, Burseen, Keppel, and Lauer; and how much does it cost (that's a biggie!
).
