Sure would be nice to know how many of those are reblooming 5 months after main bloom season and how many are reblooming earlier.

If they bloom in June or July in CA/Oz, do you think they are preferential or recessive 'summer'?

Stanton sent me his rebloom records a few years ago - there were only a few that were blooming in July/Aug, as I recall.

I took a quick look at 2008 checklist. I took samples of how many plants
are listed for  zone 9 or 10  only rebloom. About 33-40% of all of the
3388  iris listed.

Those that rebloom only in zones 9 and 10 are the preferential
vernalization types (aka California rebloomers if you prefer that term)
