First: you might want to check with Tom Little (telp@rt66.com) on what may be available in 
the digest archives. The group has had a lot of discussion on rebloomers (although less on 
everbloomers) and you could get a lot of what you need from the digests. You may have to do 
your own research.

Second: Reblooming seems to be pretty specific to areas, so a local (IRIS) supplier could 
probably give you better answers than some one in New Hampshire, Virginia or Florida.

Third: Where on the Pacific coast are you?? If there are rebloomers in the PCN family they 
would probably do well depending on where you are. I will check with a few folks that are not 
on Iris-l.

There are lots of west coast iris suppliers. Although I don't know if any specialize in 
rebloomers, any good one will have some varieties and know what does well.
