RE: most popular irids

 

Sean,

A few years back, Ellen Hornig who used to run Seneca Hill Perennials, an excellent nursery, was offering a few of these, which I believe she got from Panayoti Kelaidis.  Her place was on the shore of Lake Ontario, with a bit milder climate than most of upstate NY (and reliably massive snow cover).  I think she was able to do pretty well with one of them, unfortunately I canât recall the species, and had at least partial success with a few others.

No, no one did. I haven't grown Dierama myself, but they seem unjustifiably unknown. I get the impression that they've become popular in Britain though. As summer-rainfall plants, they should do well in most of the eastern US, with hardiness varying between species.
