Looks like 'Northward Ho' It does that for me, in colder area of S. Ontario. But doesn't start until mid to late summer. Haven't heard of that sort of blooming in other Prairie gardens.
Do you know name? How long have you had plant? How big is clump?

Subject: [iris-species] Continuous Blooming Bearded Irises [2 Attachments]
I have a question for the bearded Iris enthusiasts. Are there continuous blooming bearded irises out there? I ask this because I have a tall bearded Iris that continues to sent up new blooming flower stalks. It started doing this in late spring and has recently sent up another with a total of five over this time period. This is its first year of bloom. I am also wondering if I should now cut off any existing flower stalks as the last one is about half bloomed and the new one is just coming on.
Jim in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan where tall bearded iris are always a bit iffy for hardiness here.
