Re: Aristea ecknonii

David,

     Here is where the mention of it being related to Sisyrinchium came from http://www.floridata.com/ref/a/aris_eck.cfm  Check the end of the article.  The leaves of Aristea are wider, more like a Siberian Iris, but I am not getting the performance you mention.  What I am wondering is if I have it too sheltered?  I have it in two spots, and both are near Camellias.  Maybe I should move it to where it would get more space?  If so, when?  Would it like a 16â pot [to eliminate competition with other plants] better or would that be too restrictive on the roots?
