I asked  this same question on the HIPS forum. I had a rebloom on 3 of 12 
clumps.  Actually the freeze got the last one. I think I have read somewhere that 
it  can rebloom. I am in NE  Mississippi in zone 7. This is the first fall I  
have had LAM and it does increase like a rebloomer. Lee  Mincy


Thanks, Lee. I appreciate it.
 
You had no response when you raised the question? Maybe we are onto  
something. 
 
I guess I will dig out the Williamson Chronicle and whatever else I  have 
here once I get the bread dough put down this afternoon. I think there was  more 
rebloom in past than got commented upon. I sense, but do not  know, that that 
thing about out-of-season bloom being unnerving to  some resulted in less said 
about it than might have been done. If it  is not predictable it is then out 
of season, but if it becomes regular  it is also seasonal, I guess. 
 
Phil Edinger once told me that among the more widely grown irises was  Lent, 
but not in Texas. Maybe it likes cold. We could send some to John  Bruce, for 
variety. Superb iris. He probably has it. He should have it  and 'Rosy Wings' 
for sure. 
 
I have not joined that HIPS forum. I would feel some  responsibility to 
contribute rather than just lurk, and I really  do not have time to be a good 
member of more fora. I read the  Archives here, but drop in on the GardenWeb only 
if someone alerts me to  something of which I should be aware.
 
Has anyone on the HIPS forum said anything about another issue of ROOTS? I  
got the one in June dated Fall 2005 but that was the last.
