Re: Re: Iris attica (was more questions from the newbie)


Using Iris attica for hot climates is an interesting idea, but the attica clones that have been tested are diploid and would likely be sterile when crossed to tetraploids or amphidiploids.

You know, I've read a number of posts on other lists over the years
from hot-climate gardeners lamenting their inability to grow or bloom
dwarf irises successfully.  Seems to me attica would do much to
improve the performance of modern dwarf iris lines in hot climate
areas.  Has it been used much ... or at all ... in such pursuits?
