Getting form and colour, but not yet combined or equal to the Warm
climate iris.

I bet faster and better progress if you used good hardy iris with
good secondary characteristics. More survival, more choice from
seedlings.

Using warm climate rebloomers is an idea that has been proposed, touted
and used for some time. Hasn't shown results it promised, in theory.
Theory it is based on is there being only one set of rebloom genes, a
theory that is wrong.

It is a very slow route compared to choosing good secondary
characteristics in what is growing in your own garden
