Linda -- Just got back from Tucson and read your question.  The others
that I noted showed the same no-growth pattern at the time were:  AMBER
SNOW, SCHORTMAN'S GARNET RUFFLES and MIDNIGHT FRAGRANCE (all very
different irises) and two unidentified seedlings out of unidentified
pre-1970s parents. Not much information there, I'm afraid.
