Re: albino vesper iris

I have a plant I grew from SIGNA 98T470 seed. It does want to be divided every few years or it goes into a decline. I live in zone 9 with warm to hot summer days with no rain for months. I water by hand; I. dichotoma seems to appreciate regular watering in this climate but does not need heavy watering. I give it part to full sun.

While we or on the subject of dichotoma, I would really like to know what conditions have worked best for everyone. Old articles suggested that it should be grown in shade but the same article makes me suspect because it also said it was very shortlived. If I remember correctly Jim Waddick found it growing in the wild in short grassland, no trees with near desert conditions. I feel like I have never given it what it really wants but I do not know what that is.
