There are a number of people in the North who grow rebloomers with success.
Earl Hall in central OHIO has a large field of irises with fantastic
rebloom. His introductions, e.g. QUEEN DOROTHY, PINK ATTRACTION, VIOLET
RETURNS, to name a few, certainly rebloom in climates similar to his own not
far from Dayton, OH. Frank Jones used to have the most fabulous reblooming
iris garden on the East Coast at I believe Princeton, NJ. I visited one fall
and it looked like peak bloom in spring. Of course, Raymond Smith in IL is
one of our greatest authorities on rebloom, and has introduced numerous
cultivars. Clarence Mahan in VA.
