Hi Colleen I grow Momentous Occasion and I will watch
for some rebloom this year. We do not have acid soil to my knowledge. What I know about rebloomers
is that they need more water to get a good rebloom. When they don’t get water they will
not rebloom, when the same iris get more water
there’s that flower!! Bonnie in a very mild Ca. -----Original Message----- Hi A local iris fanatic told me a few weeks ago that her
Momentous Occasion was heading up for some late rebloom. My response was
"so you've got it in part of the garden that has acid soil" She
replied that she didn't think it was acid there, but later rang me to say that
yes it was. Reason for the question is that I'm sure that MomOcc is one
of those rare creatures that only reblooms in acid soil. It reblooms only
sporadically for me. Mike and George Sutton once asked me if it had
ever rebloomed for me, as it never had for them, but they had heard that it had
rebloomed for Aitkens and Cy Bartlett. My guess was that it is pH related and
this latest rebloom may confirm this. Has any one else had MomOcc rebloom for
them, and if so, what is you pH. Colleen Modra
