Bill and Chris,
I had Iris typhifolia for two seasons in Kentucky. It was a weak
grower and never bloomed. by mid summer, the foliage tended to lay on the
mulch. I came to suspect that it did not like hot, humid nights. Before I
moved, I sent the plant of Iris typhifolia to Oregon to see if it would do
better there.
