I'm in Southern Indiana near Louisville, Ky (zone 5/6) and, of course, the Iris have been finished blooming here for well over a month.


Welcome!

Several people in your general area belong to the Louisville Iris society.  They will be having their rhizome sale (in Louisville) soon.  Just in case you don't have enough irises ordered!  LOL! 

Also, they are a very friendly and helpful group.  In addition to several meetings a year, they also have a show each spring/May.  Their secretary, Judy Hunt, is on this list and will probably email you off list.

I'm 100 + miles south of Louisville.  If you're interested in rebloomers (fall bloom), you are fortunate that rebloom begins earlier in your area than mine.  The weather cools there a bit quicker. 

The iris talk archives (below) contains hours of good research and reading. Since you mentioned the seed/bee pods . . .  are you interested in breeding new irises?  Bee pods can be fun, but it's even more fun if you do that crossing yourself.
