Is there any books or material on this type of irises?

According to the taxonomists (I think; I don't have my reference here with
me) this plant is now known as Trimezia martiniquensis, very commonly grown
in Florida, and I think you even sent me some, Mark! By the way, that
plant thrived and is now blooming. Someone did send me something labelled
N. longifolia (maybe it was Jim?) but the foliage etc. so far is identical
to my plants of N. gracilis/northiana. The northiana I received is
identical to my seed-raised gracilis. Neomarica caerulea, is however a
very different plant.
