[quote="lovemyhouse"]... At this point, I am looking at form (becoming more enamored with ruffles all the time);
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;....

I'm still fairly new in the Iris field and I would love the see some information on what "good form" should be.
I also love the ruffles and I agree with Debra about extending bloom time, but where I live it's been way to hot for really late bloomers. I need to move the ones I have to a somewhat shadier area and to see if that helps keep their bloom. So at this point I'm trying to avoid the very late bloomers and buy more of the very early bloomers.
Most of what I buy is what I like (and I like a lot of them) nodding
Next year I'm going to have to do more of what Tom and Debra are doing which is seeing if I have something like the one I'm considering or is it better.
And yes the cost is important too.
